=== marie1973 is now known as marie1972 [09:53] Good morning. [12:17] Hey folks === hasselmm1 is now known as hasselmm [19:14] hello frecel [19:15] so I tried to install 16.04 on one of my machines [19:15] how'd it go? [19:15] and ubuiquity crashes when it tries to install grub [19:15] I send the automatic bug report but I figured I'd ask if you guys know anything abot that [19:16] you know how to recover from it? [19:17] happens to me all the time, often just retrying works [19:17] worst case reinstall grub from a working installation [19:17] I have not recovered yet, I figured I might try to install grub manually but then I would probably not have the cool purple background [19:17] if you install it from 16.04 it likely will [19:18] I tried installing it three times today no success [19:18] "cool" [19:22] I will try it again, if the grub thing will fail again I will try the manual route [19:22] with try again install only grub again or retry the full installation? [19:22] its unlikely the latter will work [19:22] I was hinda hoping someone would have some quick fix to make the installer work [19:23] grub is one of the last things done so the installer worked enough [19:23] you just need to reinstall the bootloader [19:24] either from a livecd or another distro on the system [19:24] e.g. you can chroot into the 16.04 installation from a livecd and call the grub-install again [19:25] just make sure to bindmount /proc /dev/ and /sys to the chroot [19:39] ubuntu needs to trash ibus in 16.04 [19:40] like purge remove get rid of ... etc [19:40] ibus was causing problems in wxWidget applications [19:40] such as filezilla and audacity [19:40] it was preventing the usage of backspace key triggering high cpu [20:23] should I be installing grub on the EFI partition [20:23] or is that better left alone? [20:25] jtaylor: ^ [21:00] welp I'm super smart [21:01] I installed grub but forgot to actually configure it
