This is pathological behavior on the part of the firmware. If the system is configured in UEFI mode, it should prefer UEFI consistently for all devices, not just for removable ones. The problem statement in this bug is incorrect - ubiquity *should* install grub-efi when booted under UEFI. The only reasonable way to address this problem would be to consistently install both grub-pc and grub-efi on all amd64 systems, regardless of how they're booted at install time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1015211 Title: Ubiquity installed grub-efi when it should have installed grub-pc To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1015211/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
