[Bug 686859] Re: Bootloader install failed cannot be closed

2011-05-12 Thread BBUCommander
I managed to install Ubuntu onto my Intel Matrix RAID 0 using the alternative install disk after some further experimentation. Using Gparted I created a new MSDOS / MBR partition table and formatted the drives. Using an MBR partition table is important because GPT partition tables require the

I have yet another variant of the same problem with final release 11.04. No matter what drive I select to install GRUB to, RAID or non-RAID, I always receive the message Executing 'grub-install /dev/sda' failed. This is a fatal error. It always attempts /dev/sda independent of my choice in

I believe Philip may be incorrect about the dmraid rule not belonging. I have a RAID 5 disk with a GPT partition table. When only dmraid runs, my drive is listed in /dev/mapper/drive but not its partitions. If I then run 'kpartx -a /dev/mapper/drive' then my two partitions appear as

After additional testing, I have determined that the UUID for MBR disks are duplicated across two mappings and that the regular mapping is dysfunctional. Thus for MBR disks I must point to /dev/mapper rather than use UUID. Again, this could be fixed if we could only fire the rule for GPT disks.

In case I wasn't clear, MS Office 2007 creates a CC10 column to the right in the problem 1b table, while OpenOffice merges the instruction column (the column with words) with the CC10 column such that they overlap. I had to manually fix this in OpenOffice by widely increasing the margins of the

I am a relatively new Ubuntu user and have the same problem. I deleted my Templates folder, thinking it was superfluous like the Music, Video, etc. folders, but as I began to use Ubuntu I realized that a document template feature existed in the right-click menu and I wanted use it. My first
