It seems that the root cause of the issue is Ubiquity ignoring the target disk and attempting to install GRUB to /dev/sda anyway, so this is a duplicate of #704763 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1303790 Title: In UEFI mode, installer crashes if OS is installed on 2nd drive and grub installs successfully but ubiquity doesn't think so To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1303790/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1303790] Re: In UEFI mode, installer crashes if OS is installed on 2nd drive and grub installs successfully but ubiquity doesn't think so
It is related only tangentially: ubiquity defaults to /dev/sda, which generally is the right thing to do for bios based systems, but grub-efi is installed to the right place anyhow. The problem is that ubiquity then does its own additional diddling with the disk it thinks grub was installed to, and attributes the failure of this diddling to grub- install. I believe that additional diddling only makes sense for a bios install so should probably be made contingent upon that, but even when it is done and fails, it should not claim that grub-install failed when it didn't. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1303790 Title: In UEFI mode, installer crashes if OS is installed on 2nd drive and grub installs successfully but ubiquity doesn't think so To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1303790/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1303790] Re: In UEFI mode, installer crashes if OS is installed on 2nd drive and grub installs successfully but ubiquity doesn't think so
I'm not sure this is just UEFI. I'm thought I tried legacy mode too... The only thing that worked was physically removing the primary drive so that the second was named /dev/sda. Then ubiquity completed without crashing. Also confirmed in UEFI mode for trusty, utopic and vivid.

[Bug 1303790] Re: In UEFI mode, installer crashes if OS is installed on 2nd drive and grub installs successfully but ubiquity doesn't think so
This only applies to UEFI mode because grub-install ignores its argument and always installs to /boot/EFI. Thus when ubiquity runs grub-install /dev/sda, and /boot/EFI is on /dev/sdb, grub actually installs it to the correct place and the system will boot fine, but ubiquity foolishly tries to inspect /dev/sda and finds that drive has no partition table. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1303790 Title: In UEFI mode, installer crashes if OS is installed on 2nd drive and grub installs successfully but ubiquity doesn't think so To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1303790/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
