Just to add this tidbit. I just re-installed with normal partitioning
(no raid and no LVM) just /root /home and swap and it boots normally, no
5sec wait and no errors. So I guess LVM & or RAID related???? I am just
about to re-install again to a new SSD and will install to LVM again and
I'll post back with the outcome.
Cheers,
Singtoh

Title:
Error: diskfilter writes are not supported
Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Once grub chooses what to boot to, an error shows up and will sit on
the screen for approx. 5 seconds
"Error: diskfilter writes are not supported.
Press any key to continue..."
From what I understand, this error is related to raid partitions, and
I have two of them (md0, md1). Both partitions are used (root and
swap). Raid is assembled with mdadm and are raid0
This error message started appearing right after grub2 was updated on
01/27/2014.
