Hello, I have bought 2x2TB disks and set it up for RAID0. I have installed Win7 first with UEFI that created GPT partitions. I want to install FreeBSD and Linux on it..
Using Lubuntu AMD64 14.04.02 ISO and UEFI boot I have problem with installation. Installer crashes, so I have tried gparted it crashes as well, and so parted, below are details. Please advise :-) Tomek root@lubuntu:~# parted GNU Parted 2.3 Using /dev/sda Welcome to GNU Parted! Type 'help' to view a list of commands.
