Title:
Bootloader error and no way to continue while installing Xubuntu Natty
Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
I tried to install from Xubuntu Natty Alpha 2 Desktop CD with following partitions using Virtualbox:
/dev/sda1 on / btrfs (around 5GB)
/dev/sda2 on swap (around 300MB)
It tells me the boot loader can't be installed on /dev/sda and asks me what to do. I can choose:
* install boot loader on /dev/sda
* install boot loader on /dev/sda1
* continue without boot loader
* abort installation
No matter which one I select, hitting the OK button has no effect. I
had to hard reset the machine.
Tried grub-install on TTY2 before reseting, but didn't work (see
screenshot)
