[Bug 1250582] Re: package shim-signed 1.5~13.10.1+0.4-0ubuntu4 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Connor Allen]

The exact output of it was:

connor at connor-HP-ENVY-15-Notebook-PC:~$ dpkg -S `which grub-install`
grub: /usr/sbin/grub-install
connor at connor-HP-ENVY-15-Notebook-PC:~$


I know why I had to install that one. I was running into some errors when I
initially installed 13.04 where when I attempted to dual-boot windows 8 and
Ubuntu I ran into a problem where windows wouldn't allow me to boot to
Ubuntu. I read in some forum to install Grub so it would load to that from
the BIOS. In the long run I ended up wiping windows, but that explains why
Grub is like that.
