Do I need to install a special kernel? Thank you for the advice. Alan On Thu, May 1, 2014 at 3:30 PM, Daniel Micay wrote: > On 01/05/14 06:20 PM, Alan E. Davis wrote: > > I see another level of complexity here, in a statement on a page about > > Gummiboot on the wiki: > > > > * Warning: *Gumm

Re: [arch-general] Installing Archlinux alongside Ubuntu on a Windows 8 UEFI laptop

After already chrooting, during the Arch installation process, I saw some information that suggested to use a command, as follows: mount -t efivarfs efivarfs /sys/firmware/efi/efivars It was ineffective, so after noticing a note that it should be done inside and outside of the chroot environm

I see another level of complexity here, in a statement on a page about Gummiboot on the wiki: * Warning: *Gummiboot simply provides a boot menu for EFISTUB kernels. In case you have issues booting EFISTUB kernels like in FS#33745, you should use a boot loader

Re: [arch-general] Installing Archlinux alongside Ubuntu on a Windows 8 UEFI laptop

Ubuntu's kernel is on the / partition. Would I move it to the ESP partition, in that case? And I will mount that partition on /mnt/boot ? I have never used gummiboot. Since the Arch system is already to go, but not yet with a boot management setup, I should manually move that kernel to the ESP

This looks interesting, and I am tempted to walk into the deep water. It raises some questions. Will gummiboot or refind also find the Ubuntu partition? The original partition structure of the machine there were four or five partitions, and another one popped up in the higher end of the disk.
