If you do nothing, it goes straight to boot Windows??
If you are using GRUB, press and hold SHIFT during boot, the GRUB menu should appear (worked for me at least).
If still not working, make sure you installed GRUB.
There is a freeware app (DiskInternals Linux Reader) which you can use from Windows to mount any Linux partitions (read only) and check if everything is there.

[Q] flashing linux

Hi guys, I am trying to get the net install Ubuntu onto my sbk2 device. I'm having trouble finding a program to do this on windows. I would really not want to have to setup a dual boot linux / windows on my desktop instead saving that as a last alternative..... Any help would be much appreciated.
You could install linux to a usb stick and boot from there. Insert your 4GB+ usb stick and run the live cd/usb. You should have an option to install to the usb and be sure to install grub tto the usb stick, not your primary hard drive.
My recommendation would be to skip the windows dual boot and just install linux!

How I know latest stable TWRP for tf300tg is 2.4.4.0, but I have tf300t and don't sure in it. Anyway You can flash stock firmware through fastboot. And make sure You use TWRP and rom for Your current bootloader.
Unfortunately, if I connect to the pc tf300tg is recognized as the Transformer and the fastboot does not work because it does not recognize the tablet.
Try to remove all software and drivers for tablet from Your PC and install Universal Naked Driver.

How do I install? I tried to choose the tablet driver from the folder Universal Naked Driver but I get "Can not find driver software for this device".
I tried to install this rom and the installation starts, it installs the rom on the external sd card and not on the memory of the tablet. In fact, the recovery can not mount the memory of the tablet but only the external sd.
You should able force windows to use this driver. Instead of search chose driver manually and pick android_winusb.inf.

I can not because the drivers are not 64bit.
I can not understand why the recovery does not mount the internal sd.
Thanks for your time :angel:
Recovery can not see internal memory because this version incompatible with Your tablet. You can use virtual machine for fastboot, but it kind of risky. I tried to do so with virtualbox already and was succeeded.

I was hoping to resolve on its own with the help of the forum. Unfortunately I'll have to bring it to service, or try with virtualbox but I do not know how to do.
I removed all drivers for tablet and installed xubuntu 13.04 x32 on virtualbox. Xubuntu already have proper drivers for tablet and fastboot binary in software center. So You need to install only one package for it. Using fastboot in Ubuntu and Windows is same with little exeptions: You need run fastboot with root privileges.

Is it possible to boot non-android linux with TWRP?

Hello,
I am looking at an ARM device that comes by default with Android.
Some people have found ways to install TWRP on it.
Am I right that TWRP is somewhat like a bios system equivalent?
Would it be able to boot or flash a non mobile distro such as Debian or Ubuntu?
Can TWRP boot from USB sticks or SD cards?
