japaSo wondering if I can get some assistance regarding my install usb it's not installing grub it tries to install it on "dm" ill have to be home tonight to confirm the full message18:22
fossfreedomjapa you need to set the usb device as the place to install grub - a good run through describing this is here http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/11/install-real-ubuntu-os-usb-drive/19:39
japaWhy is the boot drive where to install grub if it'll be on my pc?19:59
japaJust out of curiosity since thats not something I've ever heard of. I'm reimaging20:00
fossfreedomif you are installing everything on the USB stick - the USB stick needs to have grub.20:00
japaI'm installing to pc from Ian20:01
japaUsb*20:01
fossfreedomk - write your usb flash drive from the ISO using something like etcher.  It will correctly install everything to enable you to boot from USB to install onto  a PC20:02
japaI actually used either20:07
japaEtcher*20:07
japaThat's what's weird the setting up the iso on usb was successful but when installing it throws an error trying to install the bootloader20:26
fossfreedomhave you got four primary partitions on the hard-drive?20:28
japaIt's not in front of me so not sure.20:29
fossfreedommaybe that's the issue - you can't have more than four primary partitions20:29
japaThanks. Hadn't thought of that weird that I wouldn't. I will check this when I get home. I was going to bring it to work to work on but I forgot it.20:32
japaI was hoping it would be a relatively simple fix20:33
