I have an HP Envy Laptop with Windows 8.1 installed. I have disabled EUFI from the boot menu so that I could boot from a flash drive in order to install LUbuntu.
I have installed LUbuntu on a 3 separate partitions (the main big one, swap-file and bios root).
I have then used EasyBSD to add LUbuntu to the boot menu.
However, when I try to boot to Lubuntu from the boot menu, I get a message saying that
\NS\autoneogrub0.mb
is missing.
What is going wrong?
Looking in more detail, my EasyBCD DisplayMode Overview shows:
There are a total of 8 entries listed in the bootloader.
Default: Not set
Timeout: 30 seconds
EasyBCD Boot Device: D:\
Entry #1

The setting believes that LUbuntu is on drive D. But it is not on Drive D. It is on Partitions 6 (big), 7 (swap) and 8 (bios root)
EasyBCD is not great when it comes to UEFI Systems. Read:

Did you make a boot configuration restore point ?
If you did, refer: https://askubuntu.com/questions/230878/dual-boot-windows-8-and-ubuntu-with-windows-8-boot-manager

I am trying to boot a debian ppc power8 ( or 7 ) in a simulation.
I followed the instructions in [1].
The only thing I manage to boot is an ram drive ( initrd ) with mambo kernel, but it is a closed source. I can't do much with it.
So , now I try to boot a mambo kernel ( with a bigus disk support ) from [2] with the debian image disk from [1].
The kernel manages to mount the drive, but i do not reach a login as depiced in [3].

I have made a signed USB Serial inf file for a custom device and created an installer that successfully installs the driver to Windows 7 (32/64), Windows 8.1 (64) but not Windows 10. This applies to the default installation (right-click, install) directly on the file, using Device Manager and using PNPUTIL. The device driver successfully installs but the OEM usbser driver is used instead. After clicking "Update Driver" and selecting my driver in Device Manager, Windows prompts me with "The best driver software is already installed for your device". If I use Device Manager and choose "Have Disk" I can successfully get around the issue with Windows 10 enforcing their own driver. This doesn't get me any closer to having a successful inf file and installer though.
My process for default installation:
Unplug the device from the USB port
Load a snap shot of freshly-installed Windows 10 Professional
Right click, install on the .inf file
Plug in the device
Look at Device Manager and see that the standard USB Serial Device driver made by Microsoft is used instead of my driver
If I then uninstall it and repeat steps 3-5 it sometimes allows my custom driver to stick.
I've been told that my driver installs on Windows 10 Enterprise, which confuses matters further.
Question: What am I doing wrong?

Update:
The VBox guest additions installer manages to install my inf file in WIN10. Here is the source:
https://www.virtualbox.org/browser/vbox/trunk/src/VBox/Additions/WINNT/Installer/VBoxDrvInst.cpp#L433
Windows needs to be activated before the user is granted the permission to override the OEM drivers in Windows 10. Activating windows on my test machine solved this issue.
Try setting your DriverVer directive correctly, with today's date and 1.0.0.0. The date is one thing that Windows looks at when deciding what driver to use.
There is a way to indicate to grub to install on a device MBR by UUID instead of using /dev/sdX ? I'm setting a external eSATA hard disk with NixOS, and obviusly, the hard disk not would be always the same /dev/sdX device ?
I see that I can config it with boot.loader.grub.device = "/dev/sdX", but could set it to something like "/dev/disk/by-uuid/...." ??
currently there is no support for what you want in nixos.
see the respective source code here:
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/release-15.09/nixos/modules/system/boot/loader/grub/grub.nix
however, you should be able to use:
boot.loader.grub.device = "/dev/mydisk"
but you will need a udev-ruleset like this:
services.udev.extraRules = ''
#Bus 001 Device 005: ID 067b:2303 Prolific Technology, Inc. PL2303 Serial Port
ATTRS{idVendor}=="067b", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2303", MODE="666", SYMLINK+="ttyUSB-odroid-u3-1"
#Bus 003 Device 055: ID 10c4:ea60 Cygnal Integrated Products, Inc. CP210x UART Bridge / myAVR mySmartUSB light
ATTRS{idVendor}=="10c4", ATTRS{idProduct}=="ea60", MODE="666", SYMLINK+="ttyUSB-odroid-u3-2"
# Bus 003 Device 057: ID 054c:0268 Sony Corp. Batoh Device / PlayStation 3 Controller
ATTRS{idVendor}=="054c", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0268", SUBSYSTEMS=="usb", ACTION=="add", MODE="0660", GROUP="users"
'';
but for your external harddrive of course. just by using the symlink feature.

Some screenshots:
I just installed the Delphi XE2 Trial and I'm getting the same issue - unable to start a FireMonkey application on Mac OS X because of the missing libcgunwind.1.0.dylib.
However, I believe I know what the problem is. This file should be inside the ($BDS)\Redist\osx32 folder ready to be deployed with your Delphi OSX application. But, if you only installed the Delphi XE2 product instead of the complete RAD Studio XE2, these redistributable files will be missing, e.g. not installed at all.
Wherever this specific file is mentioned in the documents, it's in relation to C++Builder. So if this really is the issue, it's probably a (not so small) oversight on Embarcadero side.
To answer your question - I believe if you install the C++Builder XE2 trial, or the whole RAD Studio XE2 package, you should get these redistributable files.
If you go to the directory where PAServer was installed on you Mac, you should see that libcgunwind.1.0.dylib is present there.
The installer tries to help by creating a paserver.command file. If you launch using this, it should set your library path correctly so the above file is found.
If you've moved your PAServer location, just manually update the paserver.command file with the appropriate paths and run.

You have to install the PA Server here follow these instructions
Installing and Running the PA on Mac OS X
Embarcadero's instructions on starting the remote server seem to be incorrect. Use the paserver.copmmand file to start the server. Then my project ran fine.
Then Deploying. Change the build configuration to Release instead of Debug. You have to copy the libcgunwind.1.0.dylib to the Redist\osx32 directory or the release will fail. Then tried build/release again. The "project".rsm file is in the debug directory and not in the release directory. I copied the .rsm file to the release directory, Deployed and it worked. This was the case with my own demo project and the controlsDemo project. Either one worked the same way.
A bit rough start but everything is working. Don't know why they put a menubar on the controls demo since it is not very mac-like. Change it to a main menu and everything works great.

I have solved this for me. I was clicking the green run button in the ide which is 'run without debugging'.
Click the run button next to it, which in XE2 is the run button us older people are used to.
If think you need to open a cmd window and do the following command to populate the Redist folder, after that the the Deployment Manager will locate the necessary files:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Embarcadero\RAD Studio\9.0\Redist> redistsetup default
Deployment Manager has a "Reconcile" button to refresh the list.
console "Hello, World"
release - works fine (Hello, World) appears in Platform Assistant
terminal window
debug - same as release
empty 2D Form
release - Runtime error 231 at 000169AD
debug - seems to run (bouncing Spartan Helmet icon in dock) but
the form never appears
empty 3D Form
release - Platform Assistant terminal window shows "invalid pixel
format" and "invalid context" messages but form appears and menu bar
has "Project1" in it
debug - same as release
These errors mean that you run your application under MacOS that was installed on Virtual Machine. Installation of MacOS on VM conflicts with license, and therefore Embarcadero does not plan to support the VM environment.
Just click paserver.command instead of just paserver..
It works!
U can even add -password=(your password) , at the end of the last line inside paserver.command (after the last " . then it starts without asking for password.
Make sure there is a space after the path to the paserver in your paserver. Command before the -password part. For instance, my password is firemonkey and the line is as follows:
"/Users/firemonkey/Applications/Embarcadero/PAServer/paserver" -password=firemonkey
Then, make sure you run the paserver from the paserver.command file.
Check the new "Redist" folder in the RAD Studio installation path. Your application needs some files from it.
Running the paserver.command helped with the first problem but most of it is the I think a missing file.
Checking deploy, the file libcgunwind.1.0.dylib in ($BDS)\Redist\osx32 folder was greyed out so I copied the file from the PAServer on the mac and refreshed now the app runs fine stand alone :)
Just copy and run the application from the PAServer folder. Remember that to install and run PAServer you should do this http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/XE2/en/Installing_and_Running_the_Platform_Assistant_on_the_Target_Platform#Mac%3a_Installing_and_Running_the_Platform_Assistant_.28paserver.29_on_a_Mac
