Loses satellite P845t-107 - menu of EFI Linux boot entries

Hello!

I just tried to create a new boot EFI menu entry.
Unfortunately, the UEFI configuration has such an option.

So I used efibootmgr (14.04 Kubuntu).
After you have created such an entry, it works exactly once. While the entry is lost.

How can I create a permanent EFI boot entry to start another installation of operating system than the one supplied?

TIA

Hello

I found some details about efibootmgr.
> Due to bugs in efibootmgr and/or implementations of EFI, efibootmgr does not always work.

Someone said that there is a bug in efibootmgr (bug in the 2013.04.01 Installer) and one of the possible solutions is a start using the 2013.03.01 old version

But I guess that's a bad place take on efibootmgr issues.
In my opinion you should visit some places of Linux support / forums to talk about other possible solutions.

  • Satellite P845t-107 - Linux kernel does not start

    Hello!

    Recently, I bought my first laptop from Toshiba-> Satellite P845t-107.
    Unfortunately, I have a very big problem with him: none of my emergency tools work.

    So I will have no chance to save the HD data when Windows is broken and I can't find a clean system viruses.
    All these tools are based on Linux.

    I use these tools I never had such problems with all of the dozens of computers where I had to use already in all years.

    I tried to get help in the Linux forums.
    They had several ideas, but none of them worked. GRUB, boots (because compatible UEFI and secure boot is disabled).

    But after I selected the parameters of the kernel to start with, it gets stuck in a very early stage, without any error message.

    Toshiba makes obviously something of very very different from other computer manufacturers.
    So please tell me how I can make my emergency tools do work again.
    Thank you!

    Hello

    In the BIOS, you must disable secure boot and should spend UEFI to CSM.
    Then you should be able to boot from other sources.

  • Failure of dual booting Ubuntu with Windows 8 on the Satellite P845t

    I tried in vain to dual boot Ubuntu 13.10 to a new Satellite from Toshiba with Windows 8.1. The laptop has UEFI. I used the two live DVD and live USB, and I tried with SecureBoot both active and disabled.

    Whenever I have the same failure. J
    UST before the next GRUB, the error message screen appears flashes briefly on the screen "error: variable 'root' is not defined". The GRUB screen appears. I tried Trying-out Installation and Installation and whenever once I have selected one of these options, then, the screen turns off and remains empty. When you use a DVD, the DVD still Purring for several seconds, before going to death.

    Out of curiosity I tried to install OpenSUSE 12.3 in the same way (with SecureBoot both enabled and disabled in turn, etc.) and stalls from installation to a similar point every time, which leads me to think that it is something to do with how UEFI is installed on the laptop.

    The laptop is a Toshiba Satellite P845T about 3 months with the HARD drive replaced with a SSD.
    It came with pre-installed Windows 8, and I've upgraded to 8.1 Windows last week, shortly before trying to install Ubuntu.

    Curiously, the Windows desktop 8.1 has a watermark in the bottom right that says: "SecureBoot is not configured correctly", but that may not be not relevant for this query, such as Google search, that suggests that many people have this watermark even if SecureBoot is properly configured. And activating/deactivating the SecureBoot makes no difference for the message.

    Any help would be welcome, as I'd like to get this double-started with Ubuntu.

    Thank you!

  • Satellite M40-107: cannot re - install Powersaver - Code 0x7E

    Recently, I had to re - install Windows Xp on my Satellite M40-107 (PSM40E). Everything went well. Finally, I wanted to install the powersaver and I downloaded the latest version for my machine from the Toshiba web site. Installation fine until I press the complete installation (kerncentrale).

    A pop-up window appears with the message: fatal error, this programme will be completed. Code 0x7E.

  • Satellite T110-107 - Touchpad does not properly

    I love my Satellite T110-107, but there are problems with the touchpad.

    (1) the mouse cursor does not move sometimes. With this one, I get to move taking both hands away from the laptop for a while.
    (2) the cursor of the mouse all of a sudden 'draws' of the right hand of the screen.

    I tried to change the sensitivity of the touchpad to the minimum and maximum levels, I adjusted the sensitivity 'Palm', but nothing seems to help other than by the low sensitivity that helps a little.

    I also noticed that when the laptop is on my lap, the problem is worse than if it's on a table.

    I think it's a problem with an accumulation of static electricity on the case.

    Other ideas?

    Hey Buddy,

    I use the Satellite T110 for months now and really and no problem. Everything is great and I don t have problems. It the laptop really great s!

    There must be something wrong with your installation.
    First of all, I would recommend updating the driver from the touchpad. You can download the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com

    After that you should test again. Also check the settings of the touchpad again. There are a large number of settings to improve the touchpad.

  • Satellite T110-107: touchpad problem - pointer move sometimes

    Good afternoon everyone,

    Currently I have a series of Satellite T110-107 and have problems with the touchpad.

    I start the computer and the touchpad works very well for a few seconds, after that, the touch pad stops working to full capacity.
    If I wander my fingers on the touchpad and the pointer does not move, sometimes it will move up and down, but not as it should.

    It is a common problem, or is it a hardware problem... or is it the fact that I'm just not accustomed to having the correct settings on windows7?

    All help reveal be great, because it's very frustrating!

    Kind regards!

    Hello

    I found a few tips and tricks that you should try.

    First, you must change the sensitive touchpad settings to lower the level.
    Go to control panel-> mouse and all the settings for the touchpad to the value has a less sensitive level.

    You should also right click Synaptics Pointing Device (in the taskbar) and get in the middle of the page Double click speed on.
    Move the slider to half way down the beach. This should help you too.

    Last but not leas, you will need to disable zoom pinch.
    Go to the icon in the lower right corner Synaptics pointing device, click on 'The pointing device properties', click on the "Device settings" tab, then the settings button. Uncheck "Enable Pinch Zoom" under "Pinch Zoom".

    Here you can check if your series is win 8 supported:

    If it is not listed, then the drivers Win 8 coming out.

    Recommend to choose a VAP released already for other series

  • WLan disconnects when Satellite T110-107 of router

    I ve a Satellite T110-107 * with windows 7/64-bit

    When I move away from it drops wireless.

    Previously, he worked far away from the router.

    What can I do more?

    Thank you

    > Before, it worked far away from the router.

    What have you changed in the past?
    Maybe something in the settings of the WLan router?

    What about the Wan channel option (1-12) that can be set in the settings of the Wlan router?
    I recommend you to check different channels.

    In addition you should go to power options Windows and need to disable for the WLan in advanced energy saving power settings

  • Satellite C650-107 - CPU Upgrade

    Hello

    I have the opportunity to acquire a new processor which should be compatible with the support of motherboard of the laptop, but I wonder if it will work even on the laptop. Computer laptop is Toshiba Satellite C650-107, it comes originally with i3 - 330 M, but I can develop i5 - 530 M. Intel story confirms that both processors use the same socket as have same TDP so cooling should not be a problem. Can someone tell me if the BIOS will load the upgrade or the laptop does not work even with the processor?

    BTW, material is out of warranty, so this isn't something to worry about.

    Well, since I had some free time, I disassembled the C650-107 and replaced the CPU. I made a mistake, it wasn't i5 - 560 M, 530 m. It works like a charm, if anyone is wondering if it still works, it does not, no problem what-so-ever. I just put a few stress tests to make sure that it works without overheating and maximum temperature, I noticed then was 80 degrees celsius it is within the Intel specification.

  • Satellite M30-107 does not start successfully after using recovery disk

    Hello

    I recently got my hands on a toshiba Satellite M30-107 laptop second hand and decided to freshen it.
    I used the toshiba recovery disk, but after that the laptop is no longer support windows.

    When turned on it shows booting Toshiba disc for about a second then goes to a screen blank and freezes.
    When turned on, once again, a screen will appear an error by stopping and offer the opportunity to start in SafeMode etc but choose one of the options causes the machine to freeze.

    Any help or advice would be much appreciated.

    Thank you
    JT

    Hello

    Sounds a little like the laptop does not start because of the problem of Windows software
    You did not recover the M30 with the original Toshiba that was provided with this device M30 recovery CD?

    I may be wrong, but to me it looks like a recovery CD incorrect has been used and an image with drivers not compatible m has been installed

    You can try to install the OS of Microsoft Win XP original CD and could check if it would be possible to get the notebook ruin using own BONE.

    In this case we (you and me ;)) might know if this problem could be related to hardware or software.

    Good bye

    Hey
    I have a problem with my Toshiba Satellite L775D-107 and I hope you can help me.
    Since yesterday, my laptop displays a black screen. When I push the Start button, nothing happens, but you can hear it is aired but nothing more. a few hours before that I was working on it to Uni and everything was fine.

    I had the same problem a couple of weeks, and I read on the internet that he could help out the battery for 3 minutes and then press F2 and the Start button. Nothing happened, but after 2 hours I tried to start again and all of a sudden it started correctly and worked flawlessly.
    .
    Now I'm having the same problem again and I tried the same procedure but still nothing happens. Always the black screen and just the sound of the air coming out...

    I've got very important documents in United on this laptop, so I hope you can help me.

    Thank you in advance.

  • Installing WXP on Satellite L350 - 107

    Hello

    I recently bought a satellite L350 - 107
    It comes preinstalled with Vista on the disc. Now I have an original Windows XP Home edition and I use my laptop for music production and the problem is that all my programs are not really compatible with Vista. If I want to install Windows XP Home edition.

    I put in the disc of Windows XP SP2 home edition and it goes to the portion of disk partition and I don't want Vista, so I try to format my whole system, but when it is supposed to perform the format it gives an error on drive p:

    I'll try it again in a lil and then I'll post exact error code

    Someone at - it already had a problem like this one?

    Is it possible to put Windows XP Home edition on my laptop without having to get a floppy drive and having to use these programs I've read on a few posts, because I don't understand why he can't just install if you Gets an original Windows XP Home edition CD.

    in any case thank you already for the answer.

    I try he's now to get this error report and then I'll post it here.

    Hello, my friend

    To be honest, I don't understand what you mean with this error message. The fact is that report of people here on the problems with the installation of Windows XP Home edition because the HARD drive is not visible when installing WXP begins.

    To install Windows XP edition family on this laptop you need Intel Matrix Storage Manager and you can download it from the Toshiba support page. When installing Windows XP Home edition begins to press F6 and load this driver. The HARD drive will be recognized correctly and you can continue the installation of Windows XP Home edition. The problem is that you need USB floppy drive. You get one somewhere?

  • Satellite M30-107 - guard wireless disconnect and never connects

    My Toshiba Satellite M30-107 with Intel (r) PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network connection is not connect wirelessly. I know that there is no hardware problem, because I used this laptop to different wireless networks in the past, and just recently I formatted my laptop using the recovery disk Toshiba gave with it.

    I set up the wireless entering the SSID and network key. But the wireless connects with the Excellent signal is only for a second and then disconnects, then reconnects, disconnects. After doing this for a while, it remains offline.

    How can I do to connect and stay connected as it should?

    It is not easy to say why all this happens. I also think that your laptop works well, then maybe you should check the router. Reboot the router and check the WLAN connection again.

    For a moment turn off WLAN protection and check if the same problem happens without entering the network key.
    Setting router to run on 802. 11 b / g only and check again.

    Play with these settings. Have you bought a new router? I mean if everything was OK in the past I m wondering why you are facing this problem now.
