This way we have a central source of data for problems that have already been reported to developers to work on hopefully with solutions as well. I have noticed there are 2 or 3 problems that I have come across from multiple users on the IRC channels personally so I will add these and when I have the page layout finished I will post a link to the list (hopefully in the next day or so). I hope I'm not being too presumptuous with this but feel free to email me any concerns.

[Lubuntu-desktop] [Bug 522031] Re: installer crashed lubuntu
I also had the installer fail on my Acer. I was able to get around this by selecting the option to Discarded on shutdown, unless you save them elsewhere. Once I had a Live USB made WITHOUT persistent data, the installer worked flawlessly except for the fact that Lubuntu didn't include os-prober which is another issue. FYI: Without os-prober grub only shows Lubuntu. To get around this run sudo apt-get install os-prober. Run sudo os-prober and then sudo update-grub. -- installer crashed lubuntu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/522031 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Lubuntu, which is a bug assignee.

Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] Fw: Re: People having trouble with dualboots?
The workaround for this issue is simple and should be included in the wiki until the problem is solved. To get around this run sudo apt-get install os-prober. Run sudo os-prober and then sudo update-grub.

Hello to all I've experienced this issue just yesterday. The installation went fine without net connection, rebooting the system i've got all my partition, i've done a fully update, and at the requested reboot (for kernel update), others partitions are not listed in the grub list.

[Lubuntu-desktop] Fwd: People having trouble with dualboots?
-- Forwarded message -- From: Tim Bernhard ohiom...@gmail.com Date: Tue, Nov 2, 2010 at 4:20 PM Subject: Re: [Lubuntu-desktop] People having trouble with dualboots? To: Yorvyk yorvik.ubu...@googlemail.com I'm using 10.10. Besides Lubuntu, I have Windows 7, Ubuntu 9.10 and Peppermint One (based on Lubuntu 10.04?) installed. None were detected when I installed Lubuntu 10.10. Only after installing and running os-prober did update-grub find the other operating systems. I also ran across another odd behavior today. I had booted to Peppermint One to test something. When I did, I installed the recommended updates. One of the updates was grub-common. Upon rebooting, it had reordered my OS'es and moved Peppermint back to the top. After rebooting to Lubuntu, I ran os-prober and update-grub. It appeared that my list would have Lubuntu at the top, but when I rebooted, Peppermint was still there. Finally I reinstalled the grub packages via synaptic on Lubuntu. After that I had Lubuntu on top again. This might be normal, but I have never run across this issue before.
