Xubuntu 14.04 dual boot on Windows 8.1
I was wondering if someone can help me with my dual boot configuration. I followed the excellent instructions here: http://www.dedoimedo.com/computers/d...-8-ubuntu.html
However I am only able to access the installed Xubuntu partitions by using a system rescue disk, option 5. I ran bootinfoscript and have included the output below. Also, I chose to install the 32-bit version of Xubuntu, I am not sure if this makes a difference. Here is my output for fdisk -l
Code:
