[Bug 1766945] Re: (EFI on top of legacy install) choosing "replace" or "resize" options in partitioning may lead to an install failure

2021-08-02 Thread Buck Weat
I got bit.

I attempted a new install of the latest (as of 2021-08-01) 18.04 (5.xx
kernel as I recall) onto a 19GB partition (/dev/sdf2) on one disk while
specifying the bootloader location be onto a different disk (/dev/sda)
with an existing, working, boot-efi partition (/dev/sda1).

I had done this same os install successfully onto a 7GB partition on a
3rd disk (/dev/sdc2) just before.

On the 19GB install, a fatal error occurred suggesting it was unable to
write to do the final grub install onto /dev/sda.

2020-02-19 Thread Vincent Gerris
16.04 LTS is supported until April 2020 (maintenance), so it's
recommended to use 18.04 LTS (18.10 not being LTS and short in support,
see : https://ubuntu.com/about/release-cycle ).

This bug does not apply to fresh installs (although it may be related) while 
wiping the disk, see initial post.
Make sure to check your BIOS settings (EFI/non-EFI, boot sector protection) and 
please post a new full bug report with full details if you have issues ( I 
suggest on 18.04 LTS).
Thank you.

As there is no EFI system on my laptop (at least as far as this

2020-01-20 Thread eldad
Hello,

Here's my experience this issue and the solution which worked for me
(though, it would be great if someone would resolve it in a more
straight-forward matter):


Needed to convert a Windows 7 Ultimate machine to a dual-boot with ubuntu 
18.04.3.
The machine was set based on legacy bios, Windows 7 Ultimate installed on an 
MBR disk, while there was a second (physical) HD for data, formatted as GPT. 
Booting ubuntu bootable USB, it did so as UEFI.

1.
Used ubuntu to create a bootable USB (using the default "Startup Disc Creator").
Made some space on the OS HD for /root, and some more on the DATA HD for /home.
Then encountered the "No EFI system partition was found, the system will likely 
not be able to boot successfully and the installation may fail", which indeed 
reported failure.

2.
Upon reboot, Windows started with no grub menu.
Then using the same bootable USB, installed 
[Boot-Repair](https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair) and followed the 
instructions. Some of the commands resulted in errors, yet GRUB was installed 
successfully. Boot-Repair generated the following report: 
http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/c3f9zHjzfq/

3. 
Then GRUB did not show up and ubuntu started.
Following ["Dual boot pc boots directly to ubuntu instead of showing grub 
menu"] (https://askubuntu.com/a/750123/44517)

verified grub was installed using:
`grub-install --version`

edit grub to comment out (add "#") to the line including: "hidden"
`sudo -H gedit /etc/default/grub`

resulting in it now reading:
# GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden

And updating grub:
`sudo update-grub`

Now the system is up and running, starting with a GRUB menu allowing to
choose between ubuntu and Win7 .

Found on the web another solution, which I did not try:
It was suggested that deleting the "efi" folder from the bootable USB would 
allow an ubuntu installation alongside the windows one, in legacy bios mode, 
without issues.

[Bug 1766945] Re: (EFI on top of legacy install) choosing "replace" or "resize" options in partitioning may lead to an install failure

2020-01-16 Thread Fabio Godoy Ferreira
Hello!

I am having the same issue. I have Windows 10 installed, and wanted to
have Ubuntu as well. I followed the steps described on Ubuntu forums,
however it cannot install Ubuntu because it requires an EFI partition,
which is not possible to me since I have a legacy BIOS and that cannot
be changed to UEFI.

Last time I tried to "force" install Ubuntu, I ended up not being able
to boot in any of the OS's.

During the manual partitioning, I thought that creating a specific
"/boot" partition would be enough to solve the problem, but it was not,
unfortunately.

Thanks!

[Bug 1766945] Re: (EFI on top of legacy install) choosing "replace" or "resize" options in partitioning may lead to an install failure

2019-12-16 Thread Saul Aguiar
I have a multi-partition legacy (BIOS) system. About a year ago, when
prompted by software loader, I upgraded from 16 LTS to 18.04 LTS
Performed several updates after that (as prompted) but something went
wrong with a systemd file (but system still worked well for many
months).  Recently, I was prompted to do a partial update and it
completed happy but, next time I re-booted (selected version through
Grub as always have) and got a bunch of red exclamation points and
something about software frozen and system would not complete boot.   On
Dec 13, 2019 I downloaded image of 18.04 from main Ubuntu page and
created bootable USB.  This allowed me to create my user account and
password in order to back up my user data, but the "refreshed" 18.04.3
image still will not boot up via the original Grub (only runs with the
newly-created boot USB plugged in). Downloaded the 19.04 image on 12/15
from the primary Ubuntu page, over-wrote the bootable USB, and tried to
install it over top of 18.04.3 image and get complaints about EFI boot
will not work (of course, since my hardware is BIOS and not EFI).
Someone here suggested creating a 200 MB EFI partition anyway and that
will be my next step.  At the moment the installer shows first a
partition for /sda (I take this to be the location of the original boot
software), followed by an ext4 partition named /sda4 (where an old
mythbuntu resides), followed by an ext4 partition /sda6 (where the 18.04
or 19.04 image is loaded, followed by /sda5 partition designated swap.

So, this bug is DEFINITELY NOT fixed.

I am a software engineer and would like to learn more about booting
Ubuntu.   Can anyone suggest a good place in the Ubuntu document archive
to begin familiarization?

2019-01-17 Thread Stephen Erbert
This bug is not fixed.  My options, nearly a year after being first
reported, seem to be either erase the entire disk, or install something
other than ubuntu.  Installing over an older ubuntu doesn't work, and
installing alongside other installs doesn't work, and "something else"
doesn't work.  It also destroyed my ability to log into old versions,
except a 2014 version sitting on a different disk.  It seems that ubuntu
will simply never be ready for the masses, and I'm not a tech idiot, I'm
just also not a grub wizard.

[Bug 1766945] Re: (EFI on top of legacy install) choosing "replace" or "resize" options in partitioning may lead to an install failure

2018-12-15 Thread Yuv
TLDR: the Xubuntu 18.04.1 installer does not recognize an NTFS EFI
partition.  Then the process takes it course and fails.

Longer story. I recently staged two dual boot machines from scratch.
The only difference between them was the EFI partition.

Case 1:
* Laptop came with Windows 10 pre-installed
* Resized Windows partition
* Booted with USB. Xubuntu installer offered choice of installing along 
existing Windows system and everything worked like a charm. KUDOS TO THE 
DEVELOPERS OF THE XUBUNTU INSTALLER.

Case 2:
* Restaged desktop that had a Windows 10 digital license on blank SSD
* Resized Windows partition
* Booted with USB. Xubuntu installer did not offer choice of installing along 
existing Windows system
* STOPPED.  Compared the two cases and found the difference: the fresh Windows 
10 install (using 1809 media) set the desktop up with an NTFS EFI partition (at 
least so says gparted).
* Rebooted with USB. In Xubuntu installer chose "Something else", selected the 
free space on the disk to create a new partition and let the installer go
* The installer failed when trying to install grub-efi

I will still make some attempts at fixing this, and will post here if I
find something new.

2018-11-22 Thread Alan Mintaka
Trying to install dual-boot ubuntu 18.0.4 with Windows 7

Error "The 'grub-efi-amd64-signed' package failed to install into /
target/.  Without the grub bootloader, the installed software will not
boot."

Note: used gparted to create/format partitions, 
/ (20MB) 
/home (380GB)
  
During install, set mount point of / partition to "/"
mount point of /home to "/home".  

Boot device was set to ATA ST2000DM001-1ER1 (/dev/stda), location of
Windows boot partition. That's the correct boot device for Windows,
anyway.

But installation failed after defining mount points, error message:

"...failed to install into /"
 target/."

(spacing and CR/LF as shown).

Re-ran gparted and saw that / partition mount point had been changed to
/target and /home partition mount point was now undefined (blank).

Don't know if the new mount points are supposed to be intermediate
during install.  If not, install is torching the mount points.  Maybe
related somehow to grub install error?

gparted details before install ("-" designates blank field):

Crash on bi-mode BIOS/UEFI PC, grub2 failed to install, so it all
collapsed before it finished installing...

Previously I managed to install 16.4 and then upgraded to 18.04 with
similar warnings about hybrid BIOS/UEFI system...

However, when I installed D. Richter's GRUB CUSTOMIZER there was no
problem whatsoever in dual booting!

Please, add it to the installation files and peace, hopefully...

sudo apt-get install grub-customizer

I wish I knew how to edit my USB installation stick but I am from
Humanities...

Thanx!

I zsynced the Lubuntu bionic-desktop-amd64.iso and received the daily
iso file dated 2018-07-14.

I can confirm that it works to install Lubuntu in UEFI mode into my
Intel NUC from this current daily iso file.

There is no need to swap off before starting the installer.

partman-auto (134ubuntu8.1) bionic; urgency=medium

  * recipes-amd64-efi/*: remove the restriction of the ESP partition that only
allowed it being created when the partition table was GPT. This basically
fixes cases where the ESP wasn't created if the previous installation was
in BIOS legacy mode. (LP: #1766945)
  * automatically_partition/reuse/choices: do not offer reusing of a partition
in EFI mode if there is no ESP present. Only works when a newer
partman-efi is available.

2018-07-04 Thread Łukasz Zemczak
I did a sanity-test install using ubuntu desktop daily-live 20180704. I
first prepared a server-installed BIOS whole-disk installation, then
switched to UEFI and started the installation using the aforementioned
image. I have then selected the option to erase the partition and
reinstall, saw the ESP created and confirmed that the installed system
was bootable.

I think all required tests have been performed and therefore the
partman-auto, partman-efi and ubiquity changes have all been tested
(since ubiquity 18.04.14.3 includes both the correct partman-auto and
partman-efi -proposed versions).

Anyone affected - please use the remaining SRU aging time to perform
your own validation by using the latest bionic daily images. Thank you!

2018-07-04 Thread Łukasz Zemczak
Tests for ubuntu-desktop (tested using bionic 20180702 on kvm as well).
Remark: I performed all these tests with enabled download of updates
during installation due to the fact that otherwise the installer was
crashing because of some missing grub packages (unrelated to this bug).
This is fixed in the archive (binaries were waiting in Unapproved). To
make sure this is fixed without downloading updates I will perform a
sanity test afterwards using the latest bionic daily image.

Confirmed in the livefs manifest that the image contains the right
ubiquity with all the changes (18.04.14.3) [1].

 * Installed system on BIOS, full disk, switched to EFI
 * Confirmed no re-use partition options being present
 * Peformed install Ubuntu alongside existing Ubuntu (resize) and install 
(minimal)
   - This caused a prompt for resize
 * Confirmed that the ESP is to be created alongside the new partition
 * Rebooted and confirmed the system is bootable

 * Installed system on BIOS, full disk, switched to EFI
 * Peformed erase Ubuntu and reinstall (minimal)
 * Confirmed that the ESP is to be created alongside the new partition
 * Rebooted and confirmed the system is bootable

 * Installed system on BIOS, created 3 primary partitions, switched to EFI
 * Peformed install Ubuntu alongside existing Ubuntu and install (minimal)
 * Confirmed that the ESP is to be created alongside the new partition
 * Rebooted and confirmed the system is bootable

 * Booted into EFI
 * Performed a whole disk install on a clean partition
 * Confirmed that the ESP is to be created alongside the new partition
 * Rebooted and confirmed the system is bootable
