Fwd: [Bug 2055294] Re: /usr/lib/grub/grub-multi-install fails on noble-daily

[santinos09]

Dear Leo,

i manage to install Ubuntu Noble 24.04,  by using ISO image of today 
9-3-2024.

The workaround to avoid the below error is to rename the file :

ubuntu.sources    into  ubuntu.sources.old

into  directory "/etc/apt/sources.list.d/

then logout and login and i made installation  again and it worked !!!.

Now  i am using , the new istallation.

Rgds

Santino

       /usr/lib/grub/grub-multi-install fails on noble-daily

    Status in subiquity:
       Invalid
    Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
       Fix Released

    Bug description:
       I am using subiquity to install the current noble daily ISO (server).

       Subiquity failed the step called "installing grub to target devices"
       and the logs show that /usr/lib/grub/grub-multi-install failed
       silently with exit status 10.

       When running the script with `set -x`, we see the following, which
       seem to indicate that the absence of a debconf selection variable is
       causing trouble:
