    Do u successfully install it?
    If so ->
    1) press that restart button (if it not work -> just hard reboot ur pc)
    2) simply unplug usb before it boot to usb drive
    (maybe ur boot device priorities in bios is usb)

    Try to install os prober and re generate grub cfg.
    (Or just simply try to re install ubuntu )

    I suppose this does the job now?

    (I moved os boot manager above usb diskette)

    Arhhh so what it did was to run os manager at ghr first time, even before i install linux. So, how do i open bios before restarting&&after installing ubuntu? The restart duration after installing is really superrr short -.-

    If you have a uefi bios you need to select the efi grub entry through the bios. On Dell systems press F12 during startup

    @vxwilson91 really, dont go to arch as a newcomer.
    Stick with ubuntu for now. You'll know if you want to switch and to what distro if you like and learn linux.
