| strive | So I'm getting this error: "GRUB installation failed" The 'grub-efi-amd64-signed' package failed to install into / target/. Without the GRUB boot loader, the isntalled system will not boot. | 03:44 |
|---|---|---|
| strive | I read that I should change into Legacy BIOS; which I already have. Still a no go. Has anyone experienced this> | 03:45 |
| lyn||ian | strive, what version are you trying to install 17.04 | 03:51 |
| strive | lyn||ian: Yes. | 03:51 |
| lyn||ian | strive, anything else installed that you are dual booting with? | 03:51 |
| strive | I had Win10 on it. I used gparted to clear out the entire disk. | 03:52 |
| strive | Before the error occured it seems like it did create two partitions. | 03:53 |
| strive | /dev/sda1 EFI System Partition fat32 512MB | 03:53 |
| strive | /dev/sda2 ext4 | 03:53 |
| strive | That's all I have. | 03:53 |
| lyn||ian | strive try in uefi mode then as I think that bug in 17.04 is in installing grub in 17.04 I think that was the issue that caused that error message | 03:59 |
| lyn||ian | I really wish that got caught | 03:59 |
| lyn||ian | or there are other ways from a live system to try and install the bootloader for a legacy system | 04:00 |
| strive | lyn||ian: So ditch legacy and use UEFI? | 04:00 |
| strive | lyn||ian: I'm on livecd atm, but unsure how to partition manually. I do know I need boot, root, swap. | 04:00 |
| strive | Not too sure. | 04:00 |
| strive | lyn||ian: Thanks for your time. | 04:01 |
| lyn||ian | I usually would solve this another way would be from the live session sudo grub-install /dev/sda to install the bootloader from the live session if you really want legacy boot for some reason | 04:01 |
| lyn||ian | but then any other oses you dual boot with will also be legacy | 04:01 |
| strive | I actually don't want legacy, I'm just trying different things to get it to work. | 04:02 |
| lyn||ian | strive, then try installing in uefi mode | 04:02 |
| lyn||ian | 17.04 should work even with secure boot turned on | 04:02 |
| strive | Secure boot is off. | 04:02 |
| strive | I've already tried in UEFI mode. | 04:03 |
| strive | I'll try again. | 04:03 |
| strive | What should my partitions look like? | 04:03 |
| strive | lyn||ian: You know what, disregard that. I'll research on that. | 04:04 |
| strive | Nope. Same error. | 04:07 |
| strive | lyn||ian: Update: I manually created the partions (including EFI systems partition) and it worked. | 04:40 |
| strive | lyn||ian: So the installation worked, but now: Boot Menu - The system cannot find any bootable devices. | 04:42 |
| strive | lol | 04:42 |
| strive | BAM | 04:46 |
| strive | lyn||ian: Update: Mobo was UEFI only, I changed to UEFI & Legacy. | 04:46 |
| strive | Booted right up. | 04:46 |

| Guest6885 | hi, anyone installed lubuntu 12.04 on imac g4 ? im trying to install it, and right after trying to boot my screen is going black | 21:54 |
| Guest6885 | live nosplash video=ofonly nouveau.modeset=0 found it. | 22:00 |
| PaulW2U | Guest6885: Lubuntu 12.04 is no longer supported, try 14.04 | 22:07 |
| Guest6885 | PaulW2U: my imac is 1ghz and 256(ram, i'll try to put more ram ) | 22:07 |
| Guest6885 | PaulW2U: 14.04 is faster ? do u use linux on ppc? | 22:08 |
| PaulW2U | no, http://lubuntu.me/downloads/ are the only releases that are supported | 22:08 |
| PaulW2U | and even 14.04 has limited life I understand | 22:09 |
| Guest6885 | PaulW2U: which one ? desktop powerpc ? or alternate ? | 22:10 |
| PaulW2U | I don't know, I just wanted to point out that 12.04 is out of date so that you wouldn't waste too much time installing something that you wouldn't be able to update even if you managed to install it | 22:14 |
| Guest6885 | PaulW2U: oh, ok thanks:) | 22:14 |
