I've encountered the same problem. Is this an issue that won't be fixed? I thought I had a pretty normal setup. Dual boot windows 7 and Ubuntu. Installed Windows first, then Ubuntu, used all default/recommended settings. Now left with a totally trashed bootloader for both OSes, and wasted best part of a day trying to fix it. Now resorting to reinstalling both OS. In future, a bright red warning, something along the lines of "Updating Grub may render your computer unbootable" would be handy, so its clear that unticking the Grub package upgrade might be a good idea.
Since I'm now reinstalling my entire system, what is a "normal" setup? Ie what setup will survive future Grub updates? Baring in mind I'm dual booting with windows, both on same HD. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1289977 Title: Ubuntu 14.04 Update breaks grub, resulting in "error: symbol 'grub_term_highlight_color' not found" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1289977/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
