Some more info. 1. When I was installing Ubuntu above, I specified /boot partition and home dir encryption, among other things.
I retried the installation process without /boot partition and without encryption - installation completed successfully. 2. Also, my PC is all-UEFI (without Legacy BIOS boot Setup option) - Acer Aspire model ES1-432. Ubuntu installed some files to the EFI fat partition, but they have no effect - GRUB does not show up on boot. However this is probably for another bug report. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1773062 Title: can't install Ubuntu Mate 16.04 on Acer Aspire notebook To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/1773062/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
