Public bug reported:
I originally had a windows computer and then I did a flash drive dual
boot for a bit. One day I had to re-download Ubuntu, but then it cleared
my Windows hard drive completely. I don't want to be on windows anymore,
so that's okay with me. I just want to be able to work in Ubuntu. The
main issue is when I restart my computer after installing Ubuntu from
the GRUB menu I now get from restarting, it doesn't give me the option
to use Ubuntu. Only 1. Try Ubuntu without installing 2. Install Ubuntu
3. DEM Install, and 4. Check disc for defects. When I first dual booted
it let me install, and then I restarted and then I could continue in
Ubuntu. The option would change from install Ubuntu, to just Ubuntu, now
it no longer does that. Is there a way I have to partition my hard drive
or do I just have to keep trying Ubuntu without installing. I really
don't want to have to keep doing that, because then I'll just lose my
data each reboot. This is totally my fault, for installing Ubuntu and
erasing a disk, I just want to be able to use install Ubuntu and use it
continuously. Any help would be appreciated.
I tried the lsb and and the package version in terminal, but both said I
didn't have any.
