enter image description hereI want to install multiple linux distributions on my laptop from scratch. I have created an efi, linux swap, and ext4 partitions. And I have installed Manjaro linux as my primary os. The boot flag of efi partion is bootefi and that of ext4 is . I want to install multiple linux distributions along with it. I have tried installing ubuntu with mount point as but it says the bootloader is unable to open. And the installation gets terminated. On the grub menu in manjaro linux it is not showing any installed operating systems.

    Your question is unclear, for start show the output of parted -l. Generally the boot partition formatted as fat32 should contain bootloader and all kernels, and all systems should be on separate partitions formatted as ext4 (or other linux-like filesystem).

    Your first partition (with fat32 fs) should have boot flag; msftdata is used exclusively for microsoft windows. You can change this with parted or even simpler gparted. Then create new partition with ext4 fs for new system. And then install ubuntu from liveusb. Oh, and please don't include pictures in posts, copy-paste text.

  • Welcome. The ubuntu installer fail to create the / partition. As sayed @jimmij , it is better to create the root partition from the existing OS.
