It works like a charm.<br />"After a couple of trial and error sessions, I found out that in order to boot from the USB key, I had to (1) turn off Secure Boot, (2) pick "Other" from OS Support, and (3) have "USB key" early in the boot device order. In fact, it did not allow me to do (2) until I turned off Secure Boot."Bloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01105601556138041806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-632023420616344756.post-36633222396848329442012-11-29T15:39:44.402-08:002012-11-29T15:39:44.402-08:00@Gitster It is the menu at the bottom of the Boot ...@Gitster It is the menu at the bottom of the Boot Tab in the EFI settings: "UEFI Boot Drive BBS Priorities"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-632023420616344756.post-13209341756442391492012-11-29T14:23:39.637-08:002012-11-29T14:23:39.637-08:00Hmph.

I guess you learn new things every day.<br /><br />In order to "install Windows" in a virtual environment, wouldn't I need some installation medium? I am using what came preinstalled with the machine (without reinstallation medium), and am not interested in paying Microsoft tax twice.<br /><br /><br />_https://www.blogger.com/profile/04508668132209394366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-632023420616344756.post-31073535866647861692012-11-26T05:20:59.243-08:002012-11-26T05:20:59.243-08:00Why don't you just install pure Linux and then...Why don't you just install pure Linux and then use VirtualBox to install Windows?zrrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12731340919019213770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-632023420616344756.post-52035638213716529652012-11-26T04:25:11.928-08:002012-11-26T04:25:11.928-08:00I'm curious what filesystem you're using f...I'm curious what filesystem you're using for your "data" partition. NTFS? I'll also point out that Prime Instant Video works fine in Firefox/Linux, and just uses Adobe Flash, so unless there is something weird about that plugin and Chrome I'd expect it to also work. There is some odd thing where you have to install "hal" for DRM'd videos to work in Adobe Flash, however: http://askubuntu.com/questions/145735/adobe-flash-player-not-working-with-amazon-primeSteven Walterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03523708810804401967noreply@blogger.com
