Re: [DNG] Installation difficulties (Robert Parker)
Sorry for the late response. I see you've got a dual boot solution in place, but for anyone looking this up in the future I figured I'd leave my input. I've run into this issue before (more than once). For future reference, I always make sure to do a couple things (this info refers to booting into EFI/UEFI mode). 1. Prior to install, make a boot partition (format: fat32, size: I go with 256 MB) 2. Set the flags on the boot partition (using gparted you can right click on the boot partition you just created >> choose Manage Flags, and check boot. When you do that it should also check efi. Those should be the only ones checked. 3. Next there are some options on the gui installer for encrypting the boot partition and having a separate boot partition. I BELIEVE the way I've had success is to UNCHECK the option to have a separate boot partition (it seems to find it anyway unless I'm mistaken). Encryption option is up to you. If you choose to encrypt your boot partition, you'll see a prompt in the installer that says the boot partition will be part of the encrypted file system and you can just say okay there.

Re: [DNG] Installation difficulties
Got it installed and working at last. I made a successful installation of devuan-ascii onto a partitioning scheme of my own. The installation worked, the grub configuration didn't. So I plugged in an unused 500 gig drive and installed Kali Linux on that. The grub configuration following that install worked so now I have a dual boot Kali - Devuan desktop system. Bob.
