Title:
  Gutsy install failure (from live CD install)

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  How the problem occurs (could be reproduced on one PC, see further
  down, all worked well on another machine):

  I installed from Gutsy live CD on an existing partition. Told
  installer to format the drive with ext3 and set mount point to /. The
  installation finished but did not ask to reboot (as it did with the
  successful installation on another PC). I restarted manually and got
  the error:

  grub stage 1.5 error 15

  Some more info:
  - I noticed that after installation but before booting, the system mounted most of my partitions to the same directory /target
  - I have one SATA HD on controller plug 2 and an ATA CD-drive
  - I have four Windows partitions (dev/sda1, sda5, sda6, sda7), swap (sda8), and fife linux partitions (sda9 - sda13)

  I was able to repair grub manually and bottet my old feisty. I searched all the Linux partitions but nowhere were any files from Gutsy installed
  so that was the reason for the grub error, the real error must be in the mount/partitioning
