The instructions for upgrading to Ubuntu 9.10 warns that there are problems with some systems when identifying the root partition via UUID. The instructions imply that although this impacts both grub legacy and grub2, the workaround appears far cleaner in grub2. Therefore it is a logical preparation step for a 9.10 upgrade to start by first upgrading to grub2, then applying the setting not to use UUID, and confirming that all works before doing the dist upgrade.
Given this, I was surprised when I found this known bug to still be present in 9.04. Fortunately I had already read about the workaround in these grub2 upgrade guides: http://www.howtoforge.com/how-to-install-grub-2-on-ubuntu-9.04 http://www.ubuntu-inside.me/2009/06/howto-upgrade-to-grub2-on-ubuntu-jaunty.html So I'll add another vote for getting this resolved on 9.04. -- grub2 installer modifies grub 0.97 menu.lst incorrectly and fails to chainload grub2 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/376879 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
