Public bug reported:
Ubuntu 11.04 x64 Desktop and Server - Natty Narwhal Final Release.
Unable to Install GRUB and Bootloader Install failed.
First Error:
Unable to install GRUB in /dev/sda
Executing 'grub-install /dev/sda' failed.
This is fatal error.
After clicking the 'OK' button, then:
Sorry, an error occurred and it was not possible to install
the bootloader at the specified location.
I have these choices:
-Choose a different device to install the bootloader on:
/dev/sda
/dev/mapper/isw_dgaeechagi_Raid0 Linux device-mapper (striped) (750.1)
/dev/mapper/isw_dgaeechagi_Raid0p1
/dev/mapper/isw_dgaeechagi_Raid0-2 Linux device-mapper (striped) (750.2)
I even tried:
/dev/dm-0
/dev/dm-2
/dev/dm-3
/dev/dm-4
-Continue without a bootloader
-Cancel the installation
Any thing I manually typed or selected the 'OK' is grayed out.
Bootloader can not continue regardless of the 3 selections.
I deleted the Raid and reassembled it.
The same error occurs but the selection changed a hair:
/dev/mapper/isw_cdjdcjeeci_Raid0-1 Linux device-mapper (striped) (750.2)
/dev/mapper/isw_cdjdcjeeci_Raid0-1p1
/dev/mapper/isw_cdjdcjeeci_Raid0-2 Linux device-mapper (striped) (750.1)
Notice the device appears in the Disk Utility as:
/dev/dm-0
/dev/dm-2
/dev/dm-3
/dev/dm-4
Disk Utility reports the SATA Host Adapter:
Vendor: Intel Corporation
Model: 82801 SATA RAID Controller
Revision: -
Driver: ahci
Fabric: Serial ATA
Number of Ports: 6
See Attached Photos of screen.
I am unable to open a file browser during the install to attach logs or files.
I will attempt after I submit this to enter a desktop environment if I can some
how get the Bootloader install failed window to close and goto the next step.
Note: This bug report can only except single files. I hope the logs still exist
after.
