Title:
xubuntu, lubuntu images missing secure boot packages
Status in “grub-installer” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Fresh install of lubuntu 13.10 latest desktop amd64 iso image from USB
drive onto blank SSD 120GB, with GPT partition table, fails when there
is no internet connection. Same thing happens installing xubuntu
13.10 latest iso image. Subsequently the installer crashes.
I think an install succeeds when there is an internet connection, or
when the SSD partition table is MSDOS format instead of GPT. But it
seems it "should" be able to install to machine off the internet....
For l/xubuntu installs, the failure starts with an error popup
window:
GRUB installation failed
The grub-amd64-signed package failed to install into /target/. Without the GRUB boot loader the installed system will not boot.
The details log says:
Installing the grub2 package
xubuntu ubiquity: E: Unable to locate package shim-signed
xubuntu grub-installer: info: calling 'apt-install grub-efi-amd64-signed' failed.
When I press "OK" on error window and another windo pops up:
"Installer Crashed. We're sorry; the installer crashed. After you
close this window ....
After closing the window, sometimes the system hangs, sometimes it
tries to send an error report. But since the error happens with no
internet connection the error report isn't going to be sent.
