I know the feeling. :smiley:
You know... Studying computers is a form of studying. It's not all about finding your interests, but about ensuring your interests make meaning in your life. You don't have to have a wealthy career from a passion, but having a career out of your passion makes a big difference. We often study hard on the things that interest us, but struggle to study that which is uninteresting to us.

Trust must be earned, but it must be earned by both sides. It takes a lot of trust in a person to be able to trust them with Truth.

during my classes, i always play games instead of studying, hence i lost the trust of my parents, which i truly regret and want to gain it once again, which I know takes very long time.

Hi @FrenchPress

I think your parents are lucky to have a kid like you :heavy_heart_exclamation:

Yes of course, they know that I am very studious, but as I started to become lazy, my interest in studies faded away. My parents are very sad due to it, I really want to make them happy, but I am also not able to sacrifice my gaming.

Surely, we all need a balance. :balance_scale:

I was the same way in school. Nearly failed High School even...
I found many classes just plain boring.
But I had the same trouble - I was making my grandparents (My own parents... were interesting people...) who raised me most of the time pretty upset.

So, I began calculating my GPA, every day. With each assignment, I could calculate the affect it had on my Total GPA. With every day that went by, I was seeing the instant reward (Achievement unlocked) of that GPA climbing.
Before long, I began introducing new challenges, such as seeing if I could make it jump up instead of slowly climb. Extra credit, extra curricular activities... The following year I took Honors classes, since they allowed for an additional GPA point. (Like finding armor with bonuses.)
By graduation, I was on the Honor Roll, straight A student.

All because I used the dumbest method to motivate myself... making my GPA climb just one day at a time...

So guys i am installing ubuntu in another partition beside zorin os, will the grub of ubuntu create any problem with zorin os grub. please answer this as it is my main doubt.

#96

No wonder how you know so much about things :wink:

#97

I think you will only have one bootloader.
Since I never dualboot 2 Linux, you might want to wait other volunteers with this experience to confirm this.

Please explain how did it work. my ears are longing to hear it :wink:

#101

Easily- installing the other distro and grub uses the same bootloader. No special steps needed.

#102

damn i didn't know that wow :open_mouth:

#103

where did you install the bootloader, on some boot partition, or clicked the name of the main ssd/hdd

#104

I remember, when i had used linux for the first time, i installed the bootloader in my windows partition by mistake, after rebooting, i tried to open windows and it bought me to my grub again :rofl:

#105

If you choose the efi partition you remove the chance that it doesn't install correctly. I noticed in some systems that choosing the device, though should, doesn't always install correctly. If you make a seperate partition for the bootloader, with only a single drive, it will cause conflicts about which one to run. The installation of a new grub will probably fix your windows issue as well, since it sounds like a corrupt or incomplete boot entry.

Hi guys, I deleted extended partition of Zorin OS by mistake and it deleted the main partition itself. I did lose some Screenshots and apps, but the good thing is that i had kept a backup of my computer on 11th August, and i had Ubuntu 21.10 in my pendrive, so i formatted the disk and fresh installed Ubuntu and now restoring my files by Deja Dup Backup :wink:. If all files get restored properly, then i will be very happy, else I again need to ask for help :rofl:. And now Ubuntu is on a primary partition (i think...):relieved:
