Bug#732039: installation-reports: success on Lenovo Thinkpad X201 using Jessie current ISO copies to USB stick
Hi Buck, On 13.12.2013 00:29, Buck Huppmann wrote: After failing to install using the latest image, because the md5sum.txt file had a bad md5sum for one of the installation packages (e2fsprogs*udeb*), This is usually due to an error while copying to the USB stick. i downloaded the image from earlier in the day and it worked just fine, with manual partition- ing, creating an LVM, ext4 filesystems, etc., clobbering an NTFS partition and leaving the rescue partition alone Great. Suspend to disk works fine, wireless works fine after installing the appropriate firmware non-free package. (I installed using the wired Ethernet; wireless wasn't configured by the installer, and so it didn't go looking for the firmware tarball i unpacked into a /firmware directory on a VFAT filesystem i appended to the USB stick) This is a known problem, see bug #725714 [1]. Comments/Problems: Reboot failed, as i'd tried to install grub into the /boot partition so i could boot into the recovery partition, but couldn't figure out how to do that, so i input /dev/sda which seemed to work, but i got Operating system missing or some such DOS/Windows MBR boot-failure message, so i rebooted the USB stick in rescue mode, started up a shell using the newly installed root filesystem and mounted /usr and /boot, and ran grub-install, which refused to install in /dev/sda1, so i let it overwrite the /dev/sda Grub2 should not be installed into a partition, but rather on a hard disk. If you really need it, you could try the --force option. I think this bug can be closed, because the remaining problem is discussed in [1]. Do you agree?
