Public bug reported:
Ubuntu hirsute QA-test install on
- hp dc7700 (c2d-e6320, 5gb, nvidia quadro nvs 290)
Testcase was replace partition sda1 using "Something-else" or 'Manual
partitioning', replacing the last Lubuntu QA-test install performed a
few days ago in the same manner without issue (regularly done).
I didn't expect any issues here.
** Expected results
- enter my user details
- install completes, asked to reboot
** Actual results
- enter my user details
- install runs, then error
"Unable to install GRUB in /dev/sda
Executing `grub-install /dev/sda` failed.
This is a fatal error"
** Notes
This system is only used for QA-testing (occasional support tests with those QA installs)
It contained two systems
- sda1 was last hirsute QA test install
- sda2 last (lubuntu) focal daily QA-test install
