Public bug reported:
After installing Kubuntu Jaunty Beta on a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo SI 3655
notebook I am greeted with a "operating system not found" message. The Kubuntu
installer apparently fails to install grub. Kubuntu can be booted from the
live-cd by choosing "Boot from harddisk" though.
The issue is fixed by booting into the live environment and issuing the
following commands:
sudo grub
root (hd0,0)
setup (hd0,0)
If I remember correctly this also happens with Ubuntu/Kubuntu 8.04 and a
few other distros - openSUSE 11.1 installs grub correctly though.
Notebook specs:
Intel Core 2 Duo P8400 2.26 GHz
Mobile Intel GM45 Express / 1066 MHz
4 GB DDR2 (800) SDRAM
320GB WD SATA HD
Intel GMA 4500MHD
