[Bug 1476178] Re: Installer tries to install grub on the wrong disk
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1059827 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1059827 Of course /dev/sda is ancient it is a removeable USB stick! Bug or feature, that grub install fails? A successful grub install might have broken my install media. As I wrote in the error description the harddisk which I install on always ends up beeing /dev/sdb during install, but when I remove the USB stick it becomes /dev/sda at next boot. Also as I wrote, I actually solved this by manually installing into /dev/sdb via the /target mount, but still referring to /dev/sda Thus I do not see that this is a duplicate of #1059827 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1476178 Title: Installer tries to install grub on the wrong disk To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1476178/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1059827 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1059827 Your primary drive ( /dev/sda ) appears to have been partitioned with an ancient partitioning tool that started the one partition there ( fat16 ) very close to the start of the disk, which does not leave enough room for grub. You either need to repartition it with a modern partitioning tool or choose to install grub to /dev/sdb instead ( and make sure your bios is set to boot that drive ). ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 1059827 Non trivial grub2 installs no longer fit in small embed areas -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1476178 Title: Installer tries to install grub on the wrong disk To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1476178/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
