Feedback on the Lenovo E330
Usage of Solid State Drives (SSD's) with Lenovo e330 i5:
[Tested with 'OCZ Vertex Plus+' and 'OCZ Agility 3' and 'Kingston SSDnow V Series' ]
[Affects Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and 12.10, both 64 and 32 bit versions]
Grub installation on a fresh install does due to a UEFI-loading BIOS not work,
which leaves the System in an unbootable state.
The only working scenario is as followed:
-Start live media in "Try Ubuntu" Mode
-Install Ubuntu, after install finished choose "continue testing"
-Connect to internet (if not already connected)
-Start a terminal window and type:
#~$ sudo su
#~$ add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/
#~$ apt-get install boot-repair -y
#~$ boot-repair
-Leave the terminal window open
-Follow the steps described in boot-repair
Details on the usage of the package 'boot-repair' will be found here:

Review:
+ All the hardware like Wireless, 3G (mobile), HDMI, VGA, USB 3.0, etc. are working out of the box :) !
- Installation of the 'ia32-libs' package may brake the touchpad-driver in a 64bit system . Workaround here is to install ia-32libs as *first* package on the fresh, untouched 64bit system (seems to be some weird dependencies issue).
