The Debian installer never asks if, only where. It is fatal in the process of installing GRUB, regardless of what your goal is. If you don't want to see it, do not install GRUB or do not specify an improper device such as /dev/null. What's a good way to get the Debian installer to skip bootloader installation, preferably via some cmdline option, since loading vmlinuz and initrd.gz from HD is how I start most installations? Run the installer in expert mode by setting priority=low.
Unable to install GRUB in /dev/null - This is a fatal error.
It's not fatal, since I use a master bootloader, not one that a distribution includes. I'm tired of seeing this every time I install. The Debian installer never asks if, only where. What's a good way to get the Debian installer to skip bootloader installation, preferably via some cmdline option, since loading vmlinuz and initrd.gz from HD is how I start most installations? -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom.
