RE: Dual booting Windows 10 and Ubuntu 17.04 on NVMe SSD - Dell Inspiron 7567
Hi All,
I was able to make it work! The Windows 10 should be modified to enable the AHCI for dual boot.
Here are the steps which I took to enable the dual boot of Windows 10 and Ubuntu 17.04 on SATA mode set to AHCI on NVMe SSD (Toshiba)-
Created the Windows 10 local account before proceeding with the steps below
Right-click the Windows Start Menu. Choose Command Prompt (Admin).
Type this command and press ENTER: bcdedit /set {current} safeboot minimal
Restart the computer and enter BIOS Setup (the key to press varies between systems). On Dell Inspiron it is F2.
Change the SATA Operation mode to AHCI from either IDE or RAID.
Save changes and exit Setup and Windows will automatically boot to Safe Mode.
Right-click the Windows Start Menu once more. Choose Command Prompt (Admin).
Type this command and press ENTER: bcdedit /deletevalue {current} safeboot
Reboot once more and Windows will automatically start with AHCI drivers enabled.
Later installed the Ubuntu 17.04 from bootable usb by changing the boot sequence and disabling the secure boot option in BIOS. It worked like a charm.
Regards,
