2013-07-18 Thread Glendon Blount
The one thing I noticed was your grub bios boot partition is over 900mb mine on my arch Linux install is 32kb. Did you make a separate bios boot partion or did you include it into your boot partition? On Jul 18, 2013 6:36 PM, Fernando de Oliveira fam...@yahoo.com.br wrote: - Mensagem
