First HDD = encrypted Windows (Truecrypt) Second HDD = encrypted Ubuntu + encrypted NTFS partition It worked to boot into ubuntu by selecting the second hdd in the bios boot-menue. To boot into ubuntu via the Truecrypt boot-menue does not work - but I don't care at the moment. After some system upgrade (apt-get update && apt-get upgrade) I answered a question regarding grub the wrong way and now I am not anymore able to boot into ubuntu. With supergrub-disk I am able to start ubuntu. But I cannot get grub2 installed on the mbr of the second hdd.

GRUB kann in dieser Konfiguration nur mittels Blocklisten installiert werden. Blocklisten sind allerdings UNZUVERLÄSSIG und deren Verwendung wird daher nicht empfohlen.. grub-setup: Fehler: mit Blocklisten wird nicht fortgesetzt. I neither can identify the message I get nor find a solution for that. And could you show "fdisk -l /dev/sdb"? GRUB2 believes this is GPT diks. If it is true, you need to either create BIOS Boot Partition to embed grub2 or use --force to continues with (not recommended) blocklist.   To recall: After basic installation of the whole environment it worked. But you might imagine to delete the second hdd and start from scratch is not the very best solution for me. I would appreciate any help. --   Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Kind Regards Karl-Heinz Fischbach   Tel.: +49 (8121) 7922532 Skype: khfischbach jabber: aver...@jabber.org Blog: averlon.posterous.com Signatur: Diese e-mail ist unter Umständen signiert.
