I have an HDD with installed Ubuntu 18.04 and use it as an external OS to run from my macbook and any windows os.
I can use “alt” button from the starting my macbook to use Ubuntu but I don’t know how to open from windows 8.1.
How can I achieve to open HDD installed Ubuntu from windows 8.1 ?
I cloned my Ubuntu 18.04 installation to an SSD with the program "systemback" and named it Ubuntuclone. I use Ubuntuclone with my MacBook Pro for a separate OS.
While my mac is booting I hit the alt button. I then see three options:
When I choose Windows or EFI, Ubuntu works fine but the problem is this, when I restart or shut down the Ubuntuclone and open it again all the things I have done is gone. For example I have to reenter the password of the wifi, or a saved document is gone. Everything goes back to cloned status and I cannot save anything.
I open any suggestion to solve this.
Thanks in advance.
