Hey guys. I own an nVidia Optimus laptop and experienced regressions going from 17.10 to 18.10.
Now I’m trying to test Disco as early as I can. I’ve got a partition reserved for this, as I plan on dual booting. This is my fairly standard setup:
- sda is an SSD
-
/dev/sda1
:FAT32
/EFI System
(69miB) @/boot/efi
-
/dev/sda2
:ext4
(500giB) @/
-
- sdb is a rotating HDD
-
/dev/sdb1
:ext4
(~2tiB) @/mnt/data
-
/dev/sdb2
:ext4
(~100giB) unused and unmounted
-
I want to create a Disco installation on sdb2
.
It’s been almost 10 years since a last ran a multiboot installation. I believe the installer will make this easy for me. I need confirmation on the following:
- the installer will just let me choose to mount
sdb2
as/
and nothing else (though my other partitions will always be available, they will not be mounted by default); - when I choose
/dev/sda1
as my boot partition, the installer will not overwrite my current setup, but add this new installation as an option the the existing grub installation;
Thanks!
