I am having problems with creating a boot disc and installing ubuntu on an ASUS X205T I just bought. • I have successfully (I believe) created a few boot discs with 2 different programs and checked to make sure the burn process resulted in a boot disc with multiple files instead of one.iso.

Optional: Resize Recovery partition (note that the Recovery partition is required for booting Windows on this machine, so it cannot be removed if you want dual-boot, but it can be reduced in size to allow some additional room). Right-click on the OS and Recovery icons in the Unity launcher and make sure.

• I have turned off the 'secure boot control' and assigned my disc drive as the #1 'boot option priority.' • I have tried disabling the 'windows boot manager' as the #2 priority and only have the external drive as a boot priority. It begins to read the disc and then brings me right back to the BIOS. If I enable the 'windows boot manager' as the #2 priority it reads the disc and then carries on to windows OS.

• I have also tried booting from the external by using the windows GUI and selecting the specific drive as well as the other removable and DVD/CD options. I have been running Ubuntu 14.10 in a dual-boot configuration on my Asus EeeX205T for a couple of months now. Some things do not yet work -- internal wifi/bluetooth, sound, power management -- but with a usb wifi adapter, enough works, and works well enough, that I have used it as a travel machine -- a role in which it excels. UPDATE: I am now running Ubuntu 15.04 on this machine, still dual-boot (though I haven't booted into Windows in months).

With 4.0 or later kernels, internal wifi now works and power management works in part (battery monitoring), but suspend, sound, and bluetooth still do not work. With the 4.1 kernels, there are some occasional problems with freezing. Instructions for installing 15.04 should be essentially the same as below, but I have not tried installing it from scratch, and cannot verify that all of the steps are the same (or even necessary).

Additional steps needed to enable internal wifi and other needed settings are included below. Here is how I set it up to dual-boot Ubuntu 14.10. Basic Greek Phrases Pdf Reader. Note that much of the same process could be followed to set it up for an Ubuntu-only installation. The short answer is, you can't do it. Your laptop isn't the only one.

I recall reading the reason is an incompatibility with the linux kernel and the combination of a 64bit processor but a 32bit uefi like these laptops have. It's the baytrail processor and its stupid frankenstein of a uefi that's the problem. From memory the only way of getting linux to boot on one of these is to use a 64bit distro with a 32bit boot loader. So, long story short, you're stuck with windoze, which is about the only os that will boot. The asus x205t isn't the only linux-incompatible computer out there. I had exactly the same incompatibly problems with a dell latitude 10 essentials and an asus transformer book t100, both of which also use baytrail cpus.

It's unlikely ubuntu will ever install on these computers, at least not easily.
