    Not on /root, I think the first time I installed it on my /boot partitioin
    (by the installation default). But it didn't work. The second time I put it
    on MBR and it didn't work either.

    I also checked hardware compatibility, my model is not on the list. But
    checking item by item, I found that most parts should be fine.
