Win10 / Ubuntu16.04 dual boot problems [closed]

1

I'm new to the forum. First of all, I already look at the "questions that may already have your answer", and I found nothing that was useful to me.

I want to make my laptop (Acer V15 Nitro VN7-571G-50VG) dual boot Win10 / Ubuntu16.04, but some problems arise, and as a result, some doubts. I have two discs, 1st 128GB SSD - 2nd 1TB HDD. I use Linux for everything except games, Windows only for games.

When booting with the Windows installer DVD / USB, the disks appear like this:

HDD0: 1TB HDD.
HDD1: 128GB SSD.

Then, I decided to install Windows on the HDD0. When finished, boot with the Ubuntu installer and here the first question / problem appears, the discs appear as follows:

/dev/sda : 128GB SSD.
/dev/sdb : 1TB HDD.

In reverse order. Then I proceeded with the installation, creating a single primary partition ext4 in / dev / sda, and installing everything in one partition (apart also one for swap), and the GRUB also in / dev / sda. When the installation finishes, I restarted and instead of starting GRUB, it started Windows 10 automatically.

The questions that come up with all this are:

  • Why is the order of the disks different depending on the installer that is booted?
  • Why does not GRUB load, and on the contrary, start Windows automatically?
  • On what disk do you recommend installing each OS?
  • Is it a good idea to install both in UEFI mode?
  • What type of partition table should each disk have (the one used for Linux and the one used for Windows)?
  • How should I do to correctly install both OSs on different disks and start the desired ones?
  • Extra data: Somewhere (I do not remember where) I read that, to do this, it is necessary to create a separate / boot partition when installing Ubuntu, and mount on this EFI partition that creates Windows to boot, but I honestly do not have as much experience or know if this is really like that.

    Sorry for the lengthy text. Thank you very much in advance, I hope someone can help me. Greetings!
