Re: [orca-list] Installation of UBuntu-18.04

Hi bittukumar,
As Krishnakant recommand to create a swap partition, you can do so after creating /home and remember to leave 2000 or 4000 MB for swap. 


To answer your questions:

1. Ubuntu 18.04 only supports 64 bit., see releases.ubuntu.com/bionic.


2. Krishnakant already answered.
3. I think you should make another fresh install if the grub boot loader is not properly installed. Be aware that at the end of Step 6 the boot loader must be installed on the same partition of Windows, mostly sda I think. Another thing is that when installation is complete and after pressing Enter to reboot, I then remove the pendrive and hold down the power button to shutdown the computer. After I restart the computer I wait a minute or 2 before I start Orca. 


Success.

thanks Milton.
I have few more question.
1. what if person is using 32bit laptop?
2. do I need to creat swap area?
3. what is UFi  partition? because when I was installing, I chosen
erase and install. just after few days I was reinstalling the same, I
saw 2 partition.
1. UFI
2. /partition
and there was no swap area no /Hone. so what was that?
question 3: when I was installing, I got an error: grub boot loader is
not properly install or something like that.
the partitions were like:
1 Swap area
2. / Partition
3. /Home partition.

I hope that you can understand what I want to say.

currently on my laptop there are 3 partitions
1. UFI
2. /
3. /Home
and if you want to know why I did such tipe of partition then please
let me know I will tell you.

Hi bittukumar,


Install Ubuntu 18.04 with Orca

First of all make a backup of your files in case something unlikely
happens.
Evereyone feel free to correct me if I am wrong.
In Windows you can create a free space on the hard disk for Ubuntu for
exampel you can increase the space in C:

I start the computer with a pendrive with Ubuntu 18.04 live-install.
After a minute I hear the sound of the drums. I then press Alt+Super+S
to start Orca.

Step 1:
with Tab I can choose for 3 options:
1. schoose a lanugage, with Arrow Down I walk through the list of 74
options. When I land on my prefered language I press Tab to continu;
2. Try Ubuntuj without installing;
3. Install Ubuntu.
Press Enter on the Install button.

step 2:
If not connected by cable I get a question to connect by wifi to the
internet. This is for the option to install updates during installation.
Tab to NEXT and press Enter.

Step 3:
I get the question how to install Ubuntu. Normal install is select by
default. When connect to the internet also install updates during
installation is checked by default.
I Tab to the next option to install other like third party software and
codecss. I can press Spacebar to check this option. I then Tab to NEXT
and press Enter.

Step 4:
Ubuntu detects my keyboard. If not I can Tab to type some characters to
check. I Tab to NEXT and press Enter.

Step 5:
I get the question how to install and with Arrow Down I can choose an
option then Tab to NEXT and press Enter.
The options can be:
1. install ubuntu next to Windows;
2. Erase disk and install Ubuntu;
3. Something els.

Step 6:
In case I choose in Step 5 for installing Ubuntu next to Windows I
continu with Step 7.

In case I want to create a separate home partition I choose for
Something els in Step 5. Now I will be abel to make 2 partitions, one
for the system files and one for home.
Ubuntu shows me the partitions on the hard disk. I can Arrow Down and
use flat review to get more details.
When I land on the option Free space I Tab to the button Add and press
Enter.
Ubuntu shows the amount of space in MB. I type for example 15000 for the
system files and Tab to the next options. I choose for Primair with
Arrow Up and Tab to the mount point and with Arrow Down I choose for /
(slash). I Tab to OK button and press Enter.

Next I Arrow Down to the left Free space and Tab to the Add button and
press Enter.
Rarely I land on the OK button so I press Tab to other options.
Ubuntu shows me the amount of space left. I Tab to the mount point and
select /home with Arrow down. I Tab to OK and press Enter.

Step 7:
I get a question to confirm if I agree with the changes that will be
made. I Tab to the Further button and press Enter.

Step 8:
I get a question about my location to set time and date correctly. In my
case I just have to Tab to NEXT and press Enter.

Step 9:
I now type my username and Tab to the next field to type a name for my
computer. After I Tab to the field to type a password and Tab to confirm
my password. The next option after Tab I can choose to login
automatically with Arrow Up, the default is to login with my password.
finally I Tab to the Install button and press Enter.

After the install is complete Orca says to press Enter to reboot. After
this Orca will be silent. So after about 20 seconds I take off the
pendrive and press Enter.

A minor thing is the difference with Ubuntu 16.04 is  that after reboot
Orca have to start again by pressing Alt+Super+S and that there is no
sound of the drums if you choose to login with your password. So now you
have to wait and guess when you can launch Orca.

Remember that in a dual boot the grub will appear after starting the
computer and there is no Orca working yet. By default Ubuntu is the
first in the menu and will start after 10 seconds. You can change those
10 seconds in /etc/default/grub to for example -1 that means the grub
will stay untill you press Enter. You can also set a beep sound when the
grub appear. After changing this file you have to run sudo update-grub
to execute the changes.

success.
