[Bug 953959] Re: Ubiquity fails to install Grub in Precise

The log file seems to think that it installed GRUB successfully.  What
exactly was your symptom?  Did it simply fail to boot?

Exactly what did you type to install GRUB from the terminal in the live
session?

Title:
  Ubiquity fails to install Grub in Precise

Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  On my Lenovo B570e laptop with EFI BIOS, Ubiquity fails to install
  Grub. With the LiveUSB of Precise Pangolin 12.04, amd64, daily live of
  March, 12.

  However, when I *manually* install Grub from the terminal in the live
  session of Desktop CD, it does install fine. Then I can boot into
  Precise from the hard disk after all. This happens both in Ubuntu,
  Xubuntu and Lubuntu 12.04.

  I have attached both /var/log/syslog from the LiveUSB-session and a
  hardware list (output of lshw).
