So I installed Kubuntu the day before yesterday but when I start my laptop it boots right into Windows. This is how I installed Kubuntu:

I downloaded the Kubuntu 14.10 Plasma 4 release from the official Kubuntu-webpage. I burnt it on a USB-stick with Universal-USB-Installer. I changed the boot order on my Toshiba Satellite NB10-A-10U with Windows 8.1 already installed. I let the installer take the most automatet choices.

Now when i finished it doesnt show the grub menu or the likes. I can of course boot the Live-Stick Kubuntu but not the one I installed. i search on the internet but either the instructions were too complicated for me and everyone seems to have a different solution. I dont know much about booting. When I installed Ubuntu on my pc ( yes, also dual boot ) everything worked out just fine.

When your computer boots up, hit the key that brings up Boot From menu and select your hard disk.Next it will prompt you to select either Windows or Ubuntu to boot from .

  • The problem is that it just boots right into windows. No "Ubuntu or Windows" prompt. Plus there is only one Hard disk. – pixlhero Oct 27 '14 at 17:56
  • To prevent booting straight to windows , press a key to Boot from a device and select your harddisk [even if there is one] where you installed Ubuntu and you would get the option to select the 2 OS. Once you are in Ubuntu ,download Ubuntu boot repair and select Automatic Repair which should bring back your GRUB menu.

    If you can't boot into ubuntu , try using a live Ubuntu Disk and do the Boot Repair
