[Bug 520009] New: YaST says "GRUB installation failed" despite successful installation
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=520009 Summary: YaST says "GRUB installation failed" despite successful installation Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Milestone 3 Platform: i686 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: radomir.cernoch@gmail.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- Created an attachment (id=303625) --> (http://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=303625) YaST2 logs User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; cs-CZ; rv:1.9.1.0) Gecko/20090617 SUSE/3.5.0-2.2 Firefox/3.5 During the installation of openSUSE 11.2 Milestone 3 [Build0146], after all packages were installed, a window with title "GRUB installation failed" appears. In the window there is an empty space, which is probably intended for the output of the command doing grub installation. I tried several different GRUB configurations (install to MBR, install to root partition, ...), but after each attempt the window reappeared. Finally I chose to ignore the error and continue installation. After the restart, GRUB starts with no troubles. Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: Since I did no extra configuration, the error probably appears every time. Actual Results: Error appears, but installation works well. Expected Results: The window with the message should not appear. Alternatively if the window appears, there should be some error message in it and GRUB should not be properly installed. ;-) -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
