My E40 preinstalled Windows 7 has been upgraded to the flagship version and activated. To use Ubuntu, You have to install Windows 7/Ubuntu. Engraved a Ubuntu 9.10 CD plate, from the optical drive to the screen of a keyboard, a villain, can not be fixed. Press any key to display the installation menu. After installing Linux to the hard disk, press Enter. The optical drive starts to read the disk, but it will not move after a while. It is still an old problem to press here.

There is no way to use wubi to install it in Windows 7. Double-click wubi.exe and go directly to the Windows 7 installation interface. The selection interface for full installation and installation in Windows is not displayed, Which is depressing. If you do not care about the installation, continue the installation. As a result, a message indicating that the download and installation of the media failed is displayed in the middle of the installation! My network cable is not plugged in, and the wireless connection is not connected. In the end, only a CD installation disc of Ubuntu 10.10 is re-installed. Double-click wubi.exe. The selection page for full installation and installation under Windows appears. Select "Install under Windows". After restart, the installation is successful!

However, it is always uncomfortable to use Ubuntu, and it is determined that it is reliable to install Ubuntu into a partition. Simply execute wubi.exe and select "completely installed" to fail in busybox. A message is displayed, indicating that a valid file system is not found! I use a virtual optical drive for the installation media. Of course I didn't have it after www.linuxidc.com is restarted! However, you only need to try to use a USB flash drive for installation. Fortunately, there is a usb creater in the 10.10 installation disk and a 2 GB Flash usb Flash disk in the hand. After the preparation, the system cannot be started from the USB flash drive! And pressing Ctrl + Alt + Delete does not respond!

Only the idea of canceling U installation decides to use the hard disk for direct installation. Download Grub4Dos and copy grldr and grldr. mbr files to the C root directory. Then, put the vmlinuz, initrd. lz and iso image files under the Casper in the 10.10 CD installation disk to the root directory of the d disk, and write menu. lst. The content is as follows:

Title Install Ubuntu 10.10
Find/ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso
Kernel/vmlinuz boot = casper iso-scan/filename =/ubuntu-10.10-desktop-i386.iso locale = zh_CN.UTF-8
Initrd/initrd. lz

After restarting, select this menu to start installation 10.10. The installation is successful! Install/home And/boot in an independent partition. The most important thing is to install Grub2 boot information to the partition where/boot is located, if the hard disk is restored ~

After the installation is complete, you still cannot see the installed Ubuntu In the Startup menu. In this case, you need to first Delete the vmlinuz, initrd. lz and iso image files in disk D, and then add menu. lst to the root directory of drive C. The content is as follows:

Default 0

Timeout 3

Title UBUNTU 10.10
Root (hd0, 9)
Chainloader + 1
My/boot is on sda9 (Grub2 starts from sda1, Windows, Grub, and Grub4Dos are calculated from sda0, so what I saw during Ubuntu 10.10 installation is sda10 ), if you install it on another partition, change 9. Restart the Grub4Dos boot menu and check the Ubuntu 10.10 menu. after entering the menu, you can see the Grub2 boot menu. Select the kernel and enter Ubuntu.

After the test, we found that Lenovo's hard disk recovery system was normal.
