I wish to install linux systems (LinuxMint and Solydxk) on a gpt
partitioned disk.
The computer is a CompuLabs FitPc3Pro.
The BIOS is Phoenix SBC_2.1.0.333_14X64.
/fitpc3 martin # gdisk -l /dev/sda/
/GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 0.8.10/
/Partition table scan:/
/MBR: protective/
/BSD: not present/
/APM: not present/
/GPT: present/
/Found valid GPT with protective MBR; using GPT./
/Disk /dev/sda: 468862128 sectors, 223.6 GiB/
/Logical sector size: 512 bytes/
/Disk identifier (GUID): 5C7CFE3E-1CB1-4585-BE60-B38AEB42B331/
/Partition table holds up to 128 entries/
/First usable sector is 34, last usable sector is 468862094/
/Partitions will be aligned on 2048-sector boundaries/
/Total free space is 301948013 sectors (144.0 GiB)/
/Number Start (sector) End (sector) Size Code Name/

/fitpc3 martin # update-grub/
/Generating grub configuration file .../
/Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-amd64/

/No volume groups found/
/done/
/fitpc3 martin # grub-install /dev/sda/
/Installing for i386-pc platform./
/Installation finished. No error reported./
(Only one system is presently installed.)
Upon trying to start the system the bios presents the main disk
description (ATA HDD0: Kingstonxxxxxxxxxxxx) and nothing else.
Where have I gone wrong?
