Public bug reported:
Since grub 2.00-4ubuntu1 I've been getting:
/usr/sbin/grub-bios-setup: warning: this LDM has no Embedding Partition;
embedding won't be possible.
/usr/sbin/grub-bios-setup: error: embedding is not possible, but this is
required for RAID and LVM install.
when trying to update grub, which results in an unbootable system, which
I've worked around by downgrading to grub 1.99-22ubuntu2 and running
grub-install /dev/sda
This system is a self-build that has never had windows on it.
$ fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 300.1 GB, 300069052416 bytes
