After BIOS is loaded, it will prompt you to select... if never select, by default it will boot up to Linux.Originally posted by lolxzxz:wanna ask if u use dual booting how do u switch OS? use halfway can switch to another? or when u on com they will ask u?

That is most probably where Windows is installed...Originally posted by mr_sotong:i selected the 1st option.. but it told me it cannot partition my HD.. it directed me to the 3rd option..how?
Yeah... but make sure it's able to boot up... some motherboards can boot up via USB devices.Originally posted by mr_sotong:mayi mei mei! i read some website tat ubuntu can b install in external HDD.. any comments abt tat?![]()
but the website also said tat many user who install in external HDD will have a problem booting up to windows when the USB isn't plug in..Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Yeah... but make sure it's able to boot up... some motherboards can boot up via USB devices.
A good idea if you don't want anything to go wrong.
Because it's using the Linux grub loader (boot file)Originally posted by mr_sotong:but the website also said tat many user who install in external HDD will have a problem booting up to windows when the USB isn't plug in..![]()
is there any solution to fix the problem?Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:Because it's using the Linux grub loader (boot file)
Without the grub loader, how to select Windows from the list of OS to boot up?
Not that I know of, unless you install it on the hard disk itself.Originally posted by mr_sotong:is there any solution to fix the problem?
can teach me how to use the 3rd option?Originally posted by ndmmxiaomayi:That is most probably where Windows is installed...
Use the third one. Remember, don't format the wrong one or Windows gone.
You provide screenshots... I can't tell just by looking.Originally posted by mr_sotong:can teach me how to use the 3rd option?![]()
