My System came installed with Windows 8, which I updated to 8.1. and I am succesfully dual booting it and Ubuntu 13.10. Name NP700Z5C-S02ZA Vendor SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. (www.samsung.com) BIOS Date 11/04/2013 Vendor Phoenix Technologies Ltd. (www.phoenix.com) Version P07ABJ Computer Processor 8x Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3615QM CPU @ 2.30GHz Memory 7873MB (997MB used) Operating System Ubuntu 13.10
I updated to the latest bios drivers, deactivated fast boot/quick boot(in windows and in bios), intel rapid responce etc. Shrinked my main drive to allow space for Ubuntu. Booted the Ubuntu live usb with UEFI and SecureBoot stil enabled. Installed Ubuntu using the existing efi partition and the HDD as to location for the bootloader. It installed fine and Ubuntu worked just like that, however Windows 8.1 did not work until I disabled SecureBoot.(I'm not sure why.) I did not even run repair-boot. :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1040557 Title: UEFI boot live-usb bricks SAMSUNG 530U3C,np700z5c laptop Status in Ubuntu CD image build software: Invalid Status in Release Notes for Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in Release Notes for Ubuntu quantal series: Fix Released Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in “linux” source package in Oneiric: Fix Released Status in “linux” source package in Precise: Fix Released Status in “linux” source package in Quantal: Fix Released Bug description: I cannot provide detailed log massages because laptop is bricked right now.
