Public bug reported: Computer with EFI boot
Before installing Ubuntu: - sda with 3 primary partitions occupied by Windows - sdb (1Go USB disk) Here is the BootInfo after installing 11.10 : http://paste.ubuntu.com/884745 As you can see, Ubiquity installed Ubuntu on the 4th primary partition (used as extended), but placed the /efi/ubuntu/grubx64.efi on sdb. Problem: when the USB key is disconnected, Ubuntu will not boot. If this behavior cannot be avoid (i guess /efi must be on the 1st primary partition of any disk), i suggest Ubiquity should at least warn the user that Ubuntu won't boot if the USB key is disconnected. Hope this helps. ** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/956412 Title: Ubiquity placed grubx64.efi on USB disk To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/956412/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
