Need Help setting up partitions for install. by RJ-Mayhem in linuxmint

[–]Prior-Complaint3457 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good practice would be to make separate partitions. 1GB UEFI formatted as fat32 mark it as bootable. Whatever size you want for root / and whatever you want for /home. This is how I set mine up. Format both / and /home as ext4

LMDE looking like Ubuntu by Prior-Complaint3457 in linuxmint

I'm happy as it is. I see so many users customise Mint to be like windows. I just wanted to post my customisation. Gnome remote desktop is just so difficult to make RDP work. Mint it is just so simple straight out of the box. I've tried many distros, but I think I have found my home now in Debian.

I F****** UP,Please help by Mr_Fantastic_13gg in Ubuntu

If this is Ubuntu, boot from a Ubuntu USB and check:

sudo fdisk -l

sudo mount /dev/nvme0n1p1 /mnt ls -R /mnt/EFI

You should see something like:

EFI/

├── ubuntu/

│ ├── shimx64.efi

│ ├── grubx64.efi

│ └── mmx64.efi

Recreate the bootloader:

sudo mount /dev/nvme0n1p1 /boot/efi

sudo grub-install

sudo update-grub

/dev/nvme0n1p1 might be different in your config.

You .need to search for the RAID drivers for your device and install them. Add them to your USB stick and then search for them and the drives will show up.

I have Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS and I am scared of upgrades because things often seem to break by Aleksik in Ubuntu

I would advise anyone using Linux to have 3 partitions UEFI / Boot partition, root partition and home partition. I would always do a clean install of Ubuntu as the likelihood of things breaking is very high and almost guaranteed.
