I want to remove Windows 10 from my Lenovo Y720, which comes with Windows installed on an SSD, and has a separate regular hard drive.



enter image description here



But it seems that only the regular hard drive is detected. It told me there is currently no OS on the system, which there definitely is.



How can I remove Windows and install Ubuntu in this situation?

  • Many new systems need both UEFI update from vendor and SSD firmware update. You should do that even if not installing Ubuntu. Have you done that. Other issues can be that Windows fast start up is on which sets hibernation flag preventing Linux from correctly seeing NTFS partitions, or UEFI has drive(s) set for RAID or Intel SRT, not AHCI. But if you change to AHCI, be sure to install Windows AHCI drivers first.

  • It prompted me to update the BIOS and i did. Fast start up is disabled - otherwise it won't even read from the USB ports. I do recall seeing Intel SRT. Let me check that.

  • Hm, no it doesn't have Intel SRT, and i'd set to boot in Legacy mode instead of UEFI. It does have something called Intel Platform Trust Technology. Disabling that didn't help.
