[Bug 575824] Re: GRUB installs to the wrong disk when updating 9.10 to 10.04 LTS
Marked this as invalid for Ubiquity as this was an upgrade issue and not
an isntall issue.
Added Gparted as this bug mentions grub changing the names of the
drives, although that is probably to to with Linux.
Added GRUB as this seams to be the right package for this issue.
** Description changed:
- I have a 80Gb ATA IDE disk. old with Windows XP and Windows Server and
- other Sata II 500 GB partition with Ubuntu and NTFS.
+ I have a old 80GB ATA IDE disk and a SATA II 500GB disk in my computer.
+ On the ATA i have installed Windows XP and Windows Server, and on the
+ SATA i have Ubuntu and a NTFS partision.
- The Sata I have it plugged into SATA II_1 (Main) and the ATA and IDE
- exclave.
+ The SATA disk is pluged in to the first SATA port. And the ATA disk is
+ set to Slave.
- In Gparted version of Ubuntu 9.10 Dela appeared correctly as sda and sdb
- SATA and ATA.
+ Under 9.10 Gparted reports the the SATA disk as sda, and the ATA as sdb.
- By upgrading to 10.4 I did not stop to tell him where I wanted to
- install Grub, if you would in the SATA, but is that the 4.10 Gparted
- gives me the ATA as sda and the SATA as sdb, so that the grub installed
- wrong and I loaded the windows startup.
+ When i upgraded to 10.04 it did not aske me where to install GRUB, if it
+ had i would have picked the SATA, but in 10.04 Gparted reported the ATA
+ disk as sda, and the SATA as sdb. So GRUB was installed to the wrong
+ disk and instead Windows starts up.
- I saw that on computers with a single disc, making it perfect, but I
- think is a mistake that should be announced as many of us have dual
- boot.
-
- Anyone know anything about it?
-
- Thank you.
+ I didn't have any issues on a system with a single disk, but i still
+ think this should be reported, as many of us have dual boot.
