Ubuntu22.04-setup

0. Create an Ubuntu live usb

   • Create it from Ubuntu: use the startup disk creator tool provided by Ubuntu

   • Create it from Mac: https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/create-a-usb-stick-on-macos

   • Sometimes after reinstallation and restart, the grub2 may get wrong. If this happens, follow the following instruction.

     You need to ensure (hd0,msdos1)/boot/grub exists before running the following commands; sometimes grub could be in other places, e.g., (hd0,msdos5)/boot/grub

     grub> ls (hd0,msdos1)/
     grub> set boot=(hd0,msdos1)
     grub> set prefix=(hd0,msdos1)/boot/grub
     grub> insmod normal
     grub> normal
     

     Sometimes may need to change BIOS boot loader sequence.
