I've tried the following Operating Systems in the last week, and here's the results:
Ubuntu 13.10 Server daily build - Installs the OS but does not boot with the same symptoms mentioned above. OpenSuSE 12.3 - Similar to Ubuntu 13.10, the installation will properly recognize the 4k/4k drive but upon reboot, we cannot boot the OS. It does, however, display a different error. In the case of OpenSUSE, I see the following: error:disk ',gpt4' not found Entering rescue mode.... grub rescue> If I run an ls in grub-rescue I see: (hd0) (hd1) (hd1,gpt5) (hd1,gpt4) (hd1,gpt3) (hd1,gpt2) (hd1,gpt1) (cd0) RHEL6.4 Installed AND booted the OS. RHEL6, I'm told, still uses a patched legacy grub, but, it does manage to boot up the OS. I could not even begin to install Fedora 18 and 19. If I attempt to kick off an installation of these OSes, I am presented with a "Secure Boot not enabled" on the console and at that point it just sits there and doesn't move forward with the installation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1065281 Title: Installer crashed when trying to partition 4k/4k sector hard disks To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/dell-poweredge/+bug/1065281/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
