[Bug 1064483] Re: Grub 2 update install bug

[Dr Guy Simmons]

Hi,

This has happened on three different PCs on over 12 Ubuntu-based
installs (Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and three spins of Mint v13 were involved).
There were no changes to the hardware before this. I was just performing
a normal software update.

I had been on holiday for 10 days and just returned so updated my
Linuxes. The error occurred when the Grub 2 update asked for the
original install location. On all my setups it is /dev/sda1 and on no
install was this accepted for the reason mentioned.

Please let me know if you still want any further information.

Regards

DrT
