Windows 7 didn't install at all, when I created the partition and clicked "Format" it did some work for a while and then presented me an error (I believe it was http://askubuntu.com/questions/569145/read-error-with-new-harddrive 0X80070057). Fedora 21 installed beautifully but presented me with either "Read error" or the Grub menu which allowed me to boot into Fedora, once. Ubuntu 14.10 installed but it froze upon reboot, when it said to terminate all remaining processes (here I did a hard shutdown and rebooted). I never got into the Grub menu with Ubuntu. I should mention that the HDD is a Seagate 1TB, if I swap the cables to a much older Maxtor HDD with Windows 7 Home Premium on it there are no problems booting. Also the BIOS acts strangely with the Seagate drive, sometimes it doesn't add the drive in the boot list but still recognizes it afterwards if I boot a GNU/Linux installer from USB and sometimes it is stuck in BIOS so I have to reboot again. Edit: I have done a SMART check with smartctl, both short and long. No errors on the disk. boot grub2 hard-drive bios share|improve this question asked Jan 5 '15 at 12:25 Andreas Nilsson 31 What was your partition type that you had created on your new Seagate HDD?? While installation did you find any strange behavior like taking too much time while installing or something else?? –Novice Jan

If you can't boot anything -- not even a USB drive or CD -- you may need to configure the boot order in your BIOS. If this doesn't help, there may read error be a hardware problem with your computer. Check if You Can Access the GRUB Boot Loader RELATED ARTICLEGRUB2 101: How to Access and Use Your Linux Distribution's Boot Loader The first thing to check is whether you can access the GRUB2 boot loader. Boot your computer while holding the Shift key. If you see a menu with a list of operating systems appear, you've accessed the GRUB boot loader. If you don't see a menu with a list of boot options read error on appear, the GRUB boot loader may have been overwritten, preventing Ubuntu from booting. This can happen if you install Windows on a drive after installing Ubuntu or another Linux distribution on it. Windows writes its own boot loader to the boot sector, and you won't be able to boot Ubuntu until you reinstall GRUB. GRUB can also boot Windows for you, so you'll still be able to boot into Windows after you install GRUB. In dual-boot situations, you should generally install Linux on a computer after you install Windows. Repair GRUB If You Can't Access It RELATED ARTICLEHow to Repair GRUB2 When Ubuntu Won't Boot If you can't access GRUB, you'll need to repair it.

You can also just use a dedicated Boot Repair disc to boot straight to the graphical Boot Repair tool. This may be necessary, as the Boot Repair tool wasn't available for Ubuntu 14.04 when we wrote this article. After repairing the GRUB boot loader, you should be able to restart your computer again. The GRUB2 boot loader will appear and boot Ubuntu normally. (GRUB2 is hidden by default, so you may just see Ubu
