it is the first time I'm trying to install Linux on my Dell G3 that I have 3 months ago. Well, when I bought it already come with a Linux (16.04 LTS) but in a HDD. I have made a little upgrade installing a SSD on it. Well, my first choice was trying install Ubuntu with no dualboot. I'v installed linux sucessfully, but when I try to start the system my PC didn't recognize as a boot option, so appears a message saying "No bootable device found". I have tried it with 16.04, 18.04 and last realease (19.04). All of them occured the same thing. After some guides in the internet, which includes:

I still getting the same error. I trying now make a dualboot. Please, help me install Ubuntu on my PC. What I'm doing wrong?

If you guys need anything, let me know. I'm really new on installing Linux.

I got my issue solved after some tries. To whomever this may concern I've solved by following the steps below:

  • Installed Windows on a part of my SSD (I'd separated half of my total memory to each system)
  • On Windows, I installed a programm called 'Universal USB Installer' (only works on Windows)
  • Downloaded a Linux ISO from the Ubuntu site

  • On Universal USB Installer I've created a bootable Pen Drive by setting the options: image with the options setted

  • After created the bootable pen drive I've turned off the system and then restart my PC selecting the pen drive as boot.

  • Installed Linux normally on the second part of my SDD (creating a SWAP and A root directory in advanced options)
  • And then every thing works perfectly after doing this (with dual boot) hehe

Note: I've followed a tutorial to get this conclusion: link to the tutorial

That's it!
