Public bug reported:
I am trying to install Ubuntu Studio to my empty SSHD. The problem is
that I don't understand very well how to prepare the partition table,
initially, I use to do this, as MBR:
/dev/sda1 EFI 1024Mb
/dev/sda2 swap 2048Mb
/dev/sda3 / <remaining space>
Then I tried:
/dev/sda1 EFI 1024Mb
/dev/sda2 swap 2048Mb
/dev/sda3 /boot 2048Mb
/dev/sda4 / <remaining space>
And finally, restarted and clicked on the "Erase disk and install Ubuntu"
option, but still getting the same error: "executing grub install /dev/sda
failed".
I use to format the entire Solid Hard Drive with Parted Magic before
installing a new system.
