i experience this bug in quantal 12.10 daily (7/7/12). i've installed quantal, as a test, on a 8 gb stick formated btrfs as / and there everything works. Then because this worked, i decided to install it to my internal harddrive and got most likely this problem. I have seen these messages: ubuntu grub-installer: Embedding is not possible. GRUB can only be installed in this setup by using blocklists. However, blocklists are UNRELIABLE and their use is discouraged. ubuntu grub-installer: cannot read `/@/boot/grub/core.img' correctly" in the window below of the installer. (see duplicate 800840) Also as above, i reinstalled from the same live envirement (didn't reboot) and used ext4 and the installation finished without a problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/879109 Title: Grub install failed on sda and sda3-btrfs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/879109/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I've tried to install Xubuntu 12.04 on a 16 GB thumb drive, following partition table 1st partition: Primary, NTFS, 8GB 2nd partition: Primary, ext2, /boot, 0.5GB 3rd partition: Primary, brtfs, /, 7.5GB And then I've hit the grub-install error: ubuntu grub-installer: cannot read `/grub/core.img' correctly For those also looking to install ubuntu on a thumb drive, I've found that ext4 with " journal-data-writeback" option set on tune2fs, and mount options "commit=120,data=writeback,noatime" added to /etc/fstab offer acceptable performance. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/879109 Title: Grub install failed on sda and sda3-btrfs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/879109/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
