[Bug 68541] Re: GrubInstaller failed
Hardware test; 400 MHz P2; 256MB RAM; NVidia/SGS Thomsom Riva 128 w/4MB memory Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, I am closing it because the bug has been fixed in the latest development version of Ubuntu - Lucid Lynx. It won't be fixed in previous versions of Ubuntu because the package doesn't fit the requirements for backporting. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuBackports for more information. ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Fix Released ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium -- GrubInstaller failed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/68541 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 68541] Re: GrubInstaller failed
This bug hasn't been touch for years. I'm marking it as incomplete because it needs to be confirm again if it is still present in latest Ubuntu release (karmic and/or lucid). ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- GrubInstaller failed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/68541 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Are you sure it is the same bug with the changes to grub2 now? I would attach new logs here at the very least, to allow the developers to resolve the issue. -- GrubInstaller failed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/68541 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 68541] Re: GrubInstaller failed
interesting... i had no network connection throughout the install so i'm not sure why eth0 is showing up. also, /dev/hda2 should definitely have existed. however, inspecting the partition table after the failed install, i found the table to be corrupt. i'm not sure if that happened before the grub install failed or not. if so, that might explain the failure. for the record, i manually edited the partition table at time of install. /dev/hda2 was not touched during the partitioning, though, i did choose to have it reformatted. also, /dev/hda2 was mounted as /boot rather than /. i don't see why that would've affected anything as that is the same setup i had with breezy and dapper. -- GrubInstaller failed https://launchpad.net/bugs/68541 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
