Bug#847446: GRUB\LILO wont install in live mode, only in graphical install
Package: installation-reports Severity: important Dear Maintainer, I was installing Debian Jessie 8.6.0 via LiveDVD image in 'live' mode, on a VirtualBox virtual machine, w\o Internet connection. And I got a GRUB install failure; I then tried to install LILO instead, with no success. The error was saying something like "failed to install package 'grub-pc' to /target/ ...". I then finished the installation w/o the bootloader, rebooted again in live mode, and I couldn't use commands "grub-install" or "update-grub", getting a message "command not found". "locate grub-install" gave nothing too. And then I tried a new installation, this time in 'graphical mode', and everything went fine, including GRUB installation. This installation was w\o Internet connection too. -- Package-specific info: Boot method: LiveDVD Image version: http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current-live/amd64/bt-hybrid/debian-live-8.6.0-amd64-cinnamon-desktop.iso.torrent 2016-09-17 Date: 08 Dec 2016 11:00am Machine: VirtualBox 4.3.40 (IBM PC as a host) Partitions: Файловая система Тип 1K-блоков Использовано Доступно Использовано% Cмонтировано в /dev/sda1 ext4 9711136 3925516 5269268 43% / udev devtmpfs 10240 0 10240 0% /dev tmpfs tmpfs 411712 5968 405744 2% /run tmpfs tmpfs 1029272 144 1029128 1% /dev/shm tmpfs tmpfs 5120 4 5116 1% /run/lock tmpfs tmpfs 1029272 0 1029272 0% /sys/fs/cgroup /dev/sda2 ext4 2475360 89016 2240888 4% /home none vboxsf 429662204 342469484 87192720 80% /media/sf_Shared_Folder tmpfs tmpfs 205856 4 205852 1% /run/user/120 tmpfs tmpfs 205856 12 205844 1% /run/user/1000 Base System Installation Checklist: [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Initial boot: [O] Detect network card: [O] Configure network: [E] Detect CD: [O] Load installer modules: [O] Clock/timezone setup: [O] User/password setup: [O] Detect hard drives: [O] Partition hard drives: [O] Install base system: [O] Install tasks: [O] Install boot loader: [E] Overall install: [O] Comments/Problems: Had no network cable connected.
