I'm running 20.04 since March 28th, with full disk encryption alongside a Windows installation on EFI, and got the same error.

Hi Julian, The software update window showed me a link terminal interface to select a partition and this time it worked. This happened yesterday. Do you need me to describe that in the bug or do you have enough? Best, Eduardo On Tue, Apr 14, 2020, 11:05 Julian Andres Klode wrote: > It's unclear to me what is happening here.

It's unclear to me what is happening here. I don't see any error message except for the ones about /dev, which are harmless, so this should be working after you selected the partition. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1872100 Title: "The GRUB bootloader was previously installed to a disk that is no longer present..."
