Heyyy, it's my first time wanting to install Linux as my main operating system or something similar. I have worked with GNU bash commands before. First, I tried to install Ubuntu 22.04, but I got stuck on the "praping" (I think) Ubuntu drivers. I want to dual boot, as I have really important files on my main OS (Windows 10), and I don't want to lose these files. However, I don't know how to select a partition to keep the files safe.
I didn't try anything because I was afraid

When I run "neofetch" in Hyper terminal I get different results than in the standard terminal. Looking at the images, you can see the DE is different, the WM Theme and other stuff. I guess I'm just confused as to why some things are different.
Thank you
Regular terminal
Hyper terminal
I always get the same results for each terminal respectively, it's just that each result is different for each terminal window.

Installed windows 10 on a new SSD but I apparently made the mistake of doing this while the original windows 10 HDD was still connected. Apparently the windows 10 installer edits the EFI of the original drive, which is definitely not wanted. Anyway, this causes the original windows 10 installation, on the original drive, to fail to boot because the EFI now points to a drive that doesn't exist. How can the EFI on the original drive be updated to correct this?
After messing around for a day or two I found out that none of the bootrec commands posted everywhere worked. For example:
bootrec /fixboot
The system cannot find the file specified.
The solution was to use "EasyUEFI" by "Hasleo Software" to edit the EFI to point to the actual windows installation. Took all of 2 seconds to fix after that.

I am trying to install Ubuntu alongside Windows 10 from my USB, but the computer boots too quickly to select a boot option. Any suggests?
This may sound a lil bit stupid but,
I usually just smash f2 like crazy while its booting so I can get to the BIOS menu and then choose de booting device from there, would not that work for you?
Try holding F2 while starting up your PC, even before pressing the power button.

Actually I am just trying to build up a cluster(beowulf) in which there is a modification required in /sbin/lilo for reflecting the access to master node by slave node after it goes up . I changed the /etc/lilo.conf.anaconda file for timeout=1200 , but unable to find the /sbin/lilo file to get result of added linux.Please help me that where do i verify that the modificaion is been implemented??....I am working on RHEL 4.
lilo was the boot loader of Linux a long time ago.
As far as I can tell, all distributions have moved to using grub as default instead, as it is much more robust. With lilo, the risk of ending up with a non-booting system were much higher.
It seems you are following an extremely outdated manual?

I recently made the following (i believe important) changes to my system
Actually I was following this tutorial to use something called Linux Containers.
So can you tell me if any of the following stuff is capable enough to crash my system ?
1. Making changes to /etc/fstab or
2. mount /cgroup which will try to mount cgroups automatically or
3 making changes to etc/network/interfaces or
4 making changes to /etc/resolv.conf
A typo in fstab can definitely make a system un-bootable. However, you should be able to boot from CD, mount the HD, and fix it.
