[Bug 1187682] [NEW] grub installation crashed

[paolo di lavore]

Public bug reported:

I installed slackware, but stopped at "grub rescue". so I tried to install "precise-desktop-amd64.iso" with Unetbootin, on my HP pavilion dv6, with 6Gb ram. I choosed to use all the diskspace in a single partition sda1 488 Gb, plus a swap partition sda2 12 Gb.
Sorry I am a new user. I lost windows 7 software, now I want only to use ubuntu.
thank you
