My ThinkPad t430 has installed two systems, win7+ubuntu11.10. Due to the needs of the project, 11.10 systems and related environments need to be retained, but also want to install ubuntu12.04, the original hard disk capacity is tight, so bought a 120GB mSATA interface SSD, installed on its ubuntu12.04 64bit, during which encountered a lot of problems.
