This is a specific instance of a rather general problem, which we've been gradually chipping away at for some time (for example by using UUIDs more extensively). It's hard to say whether it's been fixed in your particular case, though.
If your system supports EDD, then grub 0.97-29ubuntu20 in Ubuntu 8.04 may help significantly here, as it tries to do a much better job of matching up the BIOS device order to the disks that are visible from Linux. ** Changed in: grub-installer (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: debian-installer => grub-installer -- debian-installer fails to configure grub correctly when booted from a usb pendrive https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/181908 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
