How to duel boot windows 7 and ubuntu 18.04












0















I am trying to dual boot windows 7 and Ubuntu 18.04. I just installed windows 7 64 bit so it is a fresh install. I added a partition for Ubuntu in windows disk management and then installed ubuntu 18.04 from a USB using "something else".
I used these instructions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SOfnvbdWhrs to install.
I made the partions in windows. After booting from usb and creating more partions in "somthing else" and clicking on install it gave me an error. Partition table requires a separate partition for boot loader code.
I installed anyway.



When the install was done it had to restart. But it booted back into windows no GRUB. I restarted window and still no grub.
So I try to install again and I chose to reinstall over Ubuntu. Same thing. No grub



I am runing a
I5-2500
8gb ddr 3 ram
gigabite motherbord
1tb hard drive with Windows 10 unpluged this whole time
500gb hardrive For windows 7 and Ubuntu
Windows 7 says EFI boot mode



I have tried to do ( bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path EFIubuntugrubx64.efi )
It says completed successfully. But no diffrance when I restart.



Can any one help.
sorry i am a noob
