[Bug 742967] Re: Wubi grub prompt on install
does not seem to be fixed for me on a machine where I have two physical hard disks and install Ubuntu on the second one; Windows is on the first one. On the same machine installing 10.04 and 10.10 w/ wubi worked like a charm, but installing 11.04 (both from scratch and via upgrading from within 10.10) lead to the behavior described above: Wubi prompts to reboot the machine, Ubuntu install then competes, asks for another reboot, and then I get to a prompt including a message like "ALERT! /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk does not exist". Is there any diagnostic information I can provide? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/742967 Title: Wubi grub prompt on install To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/wubi/+bug/742967/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi bcbc, So you installed 11.04 on top of 10.10 installed and it worked right. Did you have to do any updates on 10.10 before doing so? I am planning to do upgrade to 11.04 as well by running "update-manager -d" and hoping it works. -- Madhava On Thu, Apr 7, 2011 at 11:11 AM, bcbc <742...@bugs.launchpad.net> wrote: > Upgrade on non-windows partition worked perfectly as well.

I just did an upgrade from 10.10 (fresh install on the same partition as Windows) and it successfully upgraded and updated the /host/wubildr.

I've queued up lucid and maverick versions of these two patches for after we get bug 687501 validated.
