Public bug reported: Hi!
I've been using... ubuntu-8.04-beta-server-i386.iso to install, well, Ubuntu Server. I've been downloading a new iso every now and then from the repo. This latest one, which I downloaded today, gives me a strange error when I install Ubuntu. When I get to the grub install, it says... grub package failed to install into /target/. I've tried everything, and it doesn't seem to fix it. The previous ISO's (beta 8.04 ones) worked fine before on the same hardware. The only gotcha is that I'm running this on Parallels. I posted a message in the ubuntu forums and it looks like a few others are having the same problem. http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=758081 I even tried to use 'gag', which is a bootloader from sourceforge. When I selected the Ubuntu partition and tried to boot off of it, it said "No boot partition found". During the partitioning part of the install, I chose "Guided - use entire disk", and let the install do it automatically. After that failed, I tried to do a 'manual' partition, one partition as /boot (made bootable with the flag), a root partition as '/', and then a swap partition. This also failed when it got to the install grub portion with the same error message.
