Re: [LUG] Advent - Booting Kubuntu

 

Try pressing F12 during the boot sequence, before windoze starts. On most
x86 based PCs, that tells the initial BIOS driven sequences to create a "One
time boot menu" You should be able to select the boot device from that. I
have tried it on several different makes.

Guess what! That is why I was hoping to boot from within Windows!
