[opensuse-factory] Grub not installed correctly in 12.1 beta installation
I've tried installing 12.1 beta on a USB hard drive twice now. Both times I've disabled installing grub on MBR and enabled install on the /boot partition. In previous releases, including 11.4 and 12.1 factory M5 this worked, however it does not - grub is never installed to the USB hard drive. I had to manually install it with "root (hd2,0)", "setup (hd2)" at the grub command line (note that it's hd2 not hd1 because the USB stick I used for installation is seen as hd1). Has anyone seen this before? Should I file a bug report? Tim -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
I think you should file a bug report. On 10/08/2011 04:06 PM, Tim Edwards wrote:

I see at least one other person on the forum thread has had this problem
too.
