Upgrading your Computer's BIOS most probably solves this problem as well: I had the same problem with an HP compaq nc4400 notebook which had been upgraded to a 320 Gig HDD. I was able to solve the problem by upgrading the BIOS. This cured the BIOS' 128 GB HDD Bug and made the grub-Problem simply go away. HP offers BIOS updates not only using a windows program, but also as a bootable FreeDOS Image.
The same is true for an old Dell 510 (also only recognizing 128 GB HDD). Since I upgraded the BIOS to ver A04 (that's the version without the 128GB HDD bug), in boots just fine. -- Grub 2 problem, error: no such device https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/403408 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
