Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: debian-installer
Installing Lucid (10.04) Alpha 3 to a system fails at the Grub install part
with the following dialog box
[!!] Configuring grub-pc
Unable to install GRUB in /dev/sda
Executing 'grub-install /dev/sda' failed.
This is a fatal error
Go BackContinue
If I go back and try again I get the same error. If I continue, and
install LILO as the boot loader it works (but I would prefer to use
GRUB).
The system has two disks with three partitions on each
/dev/sda
/dev/sda1 - 50Gig NTFS - Not used for this install
/dev/sda2 - 256Meg - Raid (part of md0) to be used as /boot
/dev/sda3 - 270Gig - Raid (part of md1) used for LVM (which then has /, swap,
/var, /home)
/dev/sdb - same partitions as /dev/sda
If I redo the install, but use /dev/sda2 as a ext4 device with /boot on
it (i.e. no raid) it works fine - grub installs and I can boot after the
install completes.
