Ok. If I'm correct ubiquity install grub2 by default? could you look at what kind of config files it generates? because... booting to grub's prompt usually means there are no grub config files found... And that could be a ubiquity bug as well, ubiquity being the app delivering a grub install + config based on your install requiremements... The grub config that we ship is just for reference and manual installs. a. > > Could it be related to your ubiquity issue? > > Well I suspect not (the patch with which I fix ubiquity seems to be > easy clean and successful), but if it's just me then I can't be sure. > > If anyone has positive results installing on an Eee 701 (you'll > probably need the patch too *) that'd help me eliminate that aspect > from my enquiries. > > Dan > > * Comment 2 in > <https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/462462>, > applied to /usr/share/ubiquity/install.py > > _______________________________________________ > Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~puredyne-team > Post to : [email protected] > Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~puredyne-team > More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp > _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~puredyne-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~puredyne-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
