grub doesn't load on Windows 8.1/Ubuntu 14.04 dual system
Asked by
Saul Lubkin
I have a Lenovo Windows 8.1 computer. I coaxed it into allowing me to boot from a DVD, and booted an install Ubuntu 14.04 DVD. I installed Ubuntu 14.04 alongside Windows 8.1 (giving Ubuntu a much larger partition than Windows), expecting to get a dual boot system -- one which, when started, would load grub, which would allow me to choose which OS to boot. Installation of Ubuntu went as expected. I reached the point where installation asks me to remove the DVD, and reboot.
I did: Grub did not load. Instead, the computer loaded windows without asking.
How can I fix things to make grub load instead of going to windows?
Help much appreciated,
-- Saul
