I just got a new Lenovo Yoga 720 and I'm having trouble installing Ubuntu alongside Windows.
After I boot to Ubuntu Live, in both 16.04 up to 17.10 the touchpad does not work, but the touchscreen, mouse, and keyboard both do.
Whether the lenovo yoga 13 is compatible with the Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 using the unused pci-e slot I have the lenovo yoga 13 inch (i7-3537U%, 8GB RAM ) 2013 US edition. I bought Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 (pci-e) and installed it in the unused pci-e slot at the top right of the board. Device Drivers -> Multimedia support -> Cameras/video grabbers support Device Drivers -> Multimedia support -> Media USB Adapters -> USB Video Class (UVC) make-kpkg clean. Changes: - Add SATA Controller Mode option in setup Configuration page. Install the package in Windows - Save and run the downloadable file. - Follow wizard UI by making sure what BIOS to flash and flash on what platform. Lenovo Yoga 900: SSD Upgrade & Clean Windows Installation By Helge Klein on June 6, 2016 in Hardware, Windows General The Lenovo Yoga 900 packs some amazing hardware in an ultraportable 1.29 kg 13″ chassis: high-resolution 3200×1800 screen, Intel Core i7-6500U CPU, 16 GB RAM.
But the main issue is that when I get to the part of the installation 'Installation type', there is no screen to choose 'Install Ubuntu alongside Windows Boot Manager.' And I did make the partition on Windows and allotted 80 gb for Ubuntu. Omnipage professional 18 free download.

Is installation on the Yoga 720 not possible? If so, do I just need to wait until the next version of Ubuntu to do so? I see that the Yoga 720 is not on the list of certified Lenovo devices yet on Ubuntu's website.
Or is the issue not specific to the Yoga 720?

(I added some german translations in brackets)
- Backup of your important Windows files! Then resize your Windows Partition in the partition manager to get free space for Ubuntu.
- Switch your SSD settings from RAID to AHCI (Source):
- Right-click the Windows Start Menu. Choose 'Windows PowerShell (Admin)'. Type this command and press ENTER:
bcdedit /set safeboot minimal
- Restart the computer and enter BIOS Setup (Click 'Restart now' from the Recovery Settings; choose 'Troubleshoot' (Problembehandlung); 'Advanced Options'; 'UEFI Firmware Settings')
- Change the 'SATA Controller mode' from RAID to AHCI (There will be a warning 'All data will be erased' but this is not the case here, since we selected 'safeboot' earlyer)
- Disable Boot->'Fast Boot'
- Optional BIOS settings I used:
- disable the 'Hotkey Mode' in Bios too if you prefer to have ordinary Function Keys F1-F12
- Set 'Thermal Control' to 'Balanced' so the fan will start less often
- Enable 'Intel Virtual Technology' in case you want tu run VMs on your Laptop
- Save changes and exit Setup with F10 and Windows will automatically boot to Safe Mode (skip the filesystemcheck if asked)
- In 'Windows PowerShell (Admin)' enter:
bcdedit /deletevalue safeboot
- Reboot once more and Windows will automatically start with AHCI drivers enabled.
- Disable the Fast Boot checkbox 'Turn on fast startup (recommended)' ('Schnellstart') in your energy options (so later you can access your windows partition read-writable from Linux.)
- Right-click the Windows Start Menu. Choose 'Windows PowerShell (Admin)'. Type this command and press ENTER:
- Now you should be able to install Ubuntu in a dual-boot configuration:
- Install Ubuntu on a USB Device with UNetbootin (This can keep the existing data on your USB Device and just add the install-image as extra folders)
- Reboot and press F2 to enter BIOS again or just F12 to select the Boot Device
- In Boot-Settings choose the USB Stick with your Ubuntu install Image
- Attach a USB Mouse, since the Touchpad is not working at the beginning
- Install Ubuntu 17.10 and Choose 'Install third-party software' and 'turn off secure boot'
- Tweak Ubuntu
- I guess at first, you want to remove the Amazon Links in your dash ;)
- Get the touchpad running
You have to use at least the kernel 4.14. You can install the 4.14-rc5 with this script to get the touchpad running. You need to disable secure boot in you BIOS. With the new kernel at first the networking will be broken due to a bug in the apparmor settings, but you can fix this: - Optimise Power Consumption
- Remap Menu key to Print
Since there is no MENU key on the yoga 720, if you are not lucky using Shift+F10, you can remap the PRINT key to MENU: go to Settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> Screenshots, and disable the mapping using the Print Screen, then add this command to your Startup Applications: - Tweak Settings and Fix legacy tray iconsInstall Topicons Plus from https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/1031/topicons/
or install manually with:Now, reload GNOME Shell. You can either hit Alt+F2, type r, and hit enter (or login/logout). Finally, launch thegnome-tweak-tool
utility (german: 'Optimierungen') to manage extensions. There, you can enable TopIcons Plus and then tweak its look and feel. - Adapter for Ethernet, SDCARD and HDMII use an adapter for the combi USB Type-C/Thunderbolt/Displayport, i.e. this one to supplement the missing adapters. Also I have a 3-Port USB Ethernet Adapter, which both work fine on the yoga 720.
- Related solved problems
- After upgrade to 18.04 I had to solve this: Boot hangs for 30 seconds at 'Begin: Running /scripts/local-premount'

You've got a single SSD set up in RAID mode, and the Ubuntu installer won't recognize your SSD until you switch your disk setting in the BIOS from RAID to AHCI.
Making that switch comes with some problems though, as Windows will no longer boot. Looking at this article https://samnicholls.net/2016/01/14/how-to-switch-sata-raid-to-ahci-windows-10-xps-13/ will show you how to make the change without having to reinstall Windows.
- Boot to Windows with your current SATA controller configuration
- Open Device Manager
- Expand Storage Controllers and identify the Intel SATA RAID Controller
- View properties of the identified controller
- On the Driver tab, click the Update driver… button
- Browse my computer…, Let me pick…
- Uncheck Show compatible hardware
- Select Microsoft as manufacturer
- Select Microsoft Storage Spaces Controller as model3
- Accept that Windows cannot confirm that this driver is compatible
- Save changes, reboot to BIOS and change RAID SATA Controller to AHCI
- Save changes and reboot normally, hopefully to Windows
Now you should be able to install Ubuntu in a dual-boot configuration.
