[Bug 880766] Re: Ubiquity fails with EFI and software RAID

[Andrew Cranwell]

Sorry, just looked through the logs that I kept and realised I didn't
run grub-mkdevicemap before grub-probe; I'll try again tonight and post
back on this.

Does grub-installer run this check (grub-mkdevicemap) before attempting
grub-install?

Title:
  Ubiquity fails with EFI and software RAID

Status in GRand Unified Bootloader:
  New
Status in “grub-installer” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Installing from a Mythbuntu amd64 CD booted in UEFI mode. Manually
  created partitions using gdisk, created RAID1 using mdadm. Ran
  Ubiquity installer to create /dev/md0p1 as ext4, install proceeded
  until aborting at the end saying that grub-efi could not be installed.

  Manual attempts to install grub also failed (both from the CD and
  chroot), so the problem package may actually be grub2.
