| eavatar | hey, I am facing a problem during the installation. by the end of the install I get this error message | 16:37 |
| eavatar | The bootloader could not be installed. The installation command <pre>grub-install --target=i386-pc --recheck --force /dev/sda</pre> returned error code 1. | 16:37 |

| eavatar | anyone? | 16:58 |
| tomreyn | eavatar: which hardware are you installing on? which kubuntu version are you installing? | 17:09 |
| tomreyn | is this a dual-boot system (e.g. also booting windows)? | 17:10 |
| === jipang_menjerit is now known as jipangmenjerit | ||
| eavatar | I am using this config tomreyn | 17:39 |
| eavatar | AMD RS780/RS880 | 17:39 |
| eavatar | 1 tb hard drive ST1000DX001-1CM1 | 17:39 |
| eavatar | and it isn't a dual boot | 17:39 |
| eavatar | and the computer isn't uefi compatible tomreyn | 17:40 |
| tomreyn | eavatar: oh that's a really old amd model, i was thinking R would stand for Ryzen initially | 17:56 |
| tomreyn | but this is pre zen | 17:57 |
| tomreyn | do you think this is actually fast enough to run kde? | 17:58 |
| tomreyn | enough ram, too? | 17:58 |
| eavatar | 8 gb ram and I was running mint and gnome on it | 18:34 |
| tomreyn | oh, if gnome-shell worked on it, then kde/plasma should work, too. and 8 GB RAM should be enough, right. | 18:34 |
| tomreyn | unfortunately i'm not sure what may have caused the grub installation error | 18:35 |
| tomreyn | was there any accompanying warning or error message with this one? | 18:37 |
| tomreyn | Ist your disk using a GPT partition table, not the older DOS/MBR partition table format? | 18:38 |
| tomreyn | *Is | 18:38 |
| eavatar | it is a mbr partition | 18:39 |
| tomreyn | you could boot from a usb live system, mount file systems (incl. bind-mounting relevant special file systems already mounted on the main system) and chroot into the installed system and try running grub-install from there. | 18:43 |
| tomreyn | maybe it would work then, or at least give you a better error message | 18:44 |
| tomreyn | there are also bioses which have a setting for boot sector protection. make sure you don't have such enabled. | 18:44 |
| beelink | Hello. No grub menu at startup and cannot enter BIOS. any idea? | 19:12 |
