[Bug 219230] Re: Grub fails on server install
Sorry, the beta CD images have been broken due to necessary changes in the development archive since then (although it's still technically possible to install them provided that you *don't* have a network connection). We aren't going to fix this now - please use the release candidate, which doesn't have this problem. ** Changed in: debian-installer (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Won't Fix -- Grub fails on server install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219230 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 219230] Re: Grub fails on server install
I downloaded the RC this-morning. The file I downloaded was... ubuntu-8.04-rc-server-i386.iso This installed absolutely fine without a single problem. The beta version would stop when installing grub. But on the RC, this has been fixed. Thanks for your help!

[Bug 219230] Re: Grub fails on server install
FHi, I have the same problem using both i386 and amd64 versions of the alternate disk. I found that it is still possible to select LILo as an alternative and continue the installation without any further problem, so the problem is strictly with GRUB.

[Bug 219230] Re: Grub fails on server install
as I have put per the forum thread above I have had similar issues. However with the RC AMD 64 Server install seems to have finally installed after some work in rescue mode. However with both the Beta and RC, my installs have not been clean installs - i.e. they were installed as a new system but on a re-created root partition onto an existing boxen running Hoary. I did re-format the root partition though. Possibility the re-format of an existing partition not working correctly? As when I did this the install said - Overwriting existing system files - which when with a re-format the partition should be blank ? -- Grub fails on server install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219230 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I just wanted to add that I tried this on the alternate install cd, and I received the same message. -- Grub fails on server install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219230 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
