[Bug 576724] Re: Ubuntu Lucid grub2 dist-upgrades result in confusion

2010-06-09 Thread Fred Palmer
Part of the problem is windows refers to drives when they really are 
partitions. In windows you have a C: drive and a D: drive when you only have 
one hard drive and two partitions. All those windows users that then have not 
installed Ubuntu other than the auto installer really do not know about 
partitions. So when the grub installer says to install to all drives the 
average windows user thinks that has to include everything. Then list list 
presented does not clearly list drives separate from partitions. If you have a 
lot of partitions it becomes a very long list.
The average user see this and will check off everything because they were told 
to install to all drives;

[Bug 1775743] Re: [regression] Cosmic daily images 20180606-11 install but boots only to grub prompt on EFI systems

2018-06-26 Thread Fred Palmer
Not sure proposed fix is all of issue.

I boot 18.04 by default with UEFI and every test or experimental install in the 
past has  overwritten my /EFI/ubuntu.
But install of Cosmic did not overwrite my /EFI/ubuntu but created /EFI/grub. 
It has a correct /EFI/grub/grub.cfg, but my UEFI is set to default boot using 
/EFI/ubuntu.
But booting grub UEFI entry booted me into my default install.
Issue is similar to previous bug reports where a change to GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR= 
creates a new UEFI entry, but internally either efi_distributor or perhaps just 
the code that defines where to find grub is hard coded to /EFI/ubuntu/grub.cfg.
It needs to use grub.cfg in the ESP folder it creates. And kluge on Kubuntu 
should finally be fixed.

Older version, not sure what you have now.

[Bug 1396379] Re: installer uses first EFI system partition found even when directed otherwise

2018-11-25 Thread Fred Palmer
Installed 19.04 to sdb drive (internal, but also flash drive as sdc) and
it overwrote my /EFI/ubuntu folder on sda.

I changed combo box which never has done anything with UEFI installs, but it 
does then say during install that it is installing grub to sdb/external.
I clicked on ESP on sda, and said do not use. I clicked on ESP on sdb and said 
use as ESP.

Several years ago I installed Fedora, just to see grub differences, and
it just installed to sdb when I told it to.

So it is Ubuntu's modifications to grub that make it not install to
drive you really want.

2018-09-16 Thread Fred Palmer
I updated UEFI from Asus, but same version I was using since April.

Still only can boot with rEFInd from sdc or flash drive with full
install of Ubuntu.

UEFI does not want to see ESP on sda which is mounted by fstab. It changes 
entries to like drive disconnected. 
And on reboot all new entries only from ESP on sdc are created.

But ran dosfsk on ESP at sda1, and it showed error with dirty bit set,
as soon as I rebooted so shutdown was not correct.

Also tried manually unmounting my ESP at sda1 and immediately shutting
down, but same issue. UEFI would not see ESP on sda1 and dirty bit set
again. And all new entries in UEFI from sdc's ESP files.

2018-09-16 Thread Fred Palmer
Resolved my boot issue, I think. Errors on FAT32 ESP, my sda1.

Issue started with no space left on device. 
Then I would add new UEFI boot entry for sda's ESP for 18.04, but on reboot 
UEFI would not use it, erased it and entries for all the .efi possibilities 
were added from boot device, my sdc.

Not sure if all fixes required, perhaps it originally was originally
error corrupted fat32 ESP. But that error would keep appearing on
reboot.

Reinstalled Asus UEFI, same version as one used since April 2018.
Unplugged all drives to get UEFI to reset, removed all entries from UEFI with 
efibootmgr.
Added UEFI boot entry for 18.04 using efibootmgr to to boot from sda1.
Every reboot, erased entry to boot sda, and only booted with rEFInd on sdc or 
external drive.
Ran  fsck.vfat and it cleared error bit saying it may have not been umounted 
correctly. It is mounted with fstab in sda's install.
On reboot same issue, all UEFI entries for sda missing, and fsck.vfat showed 
error bit. I believe that is why UEFI would not use my sda1, ESP for booting.

Using another install so sda1, ESP not mounted.
Then totally reformatted sda1 using command line, mkfs, not gparted. 
Updated ESP/efi entry in fstab in Ubuntu 18.04 install with new UUID. 
Totally uninstalled & reinstalled grub signed version. 
System now boots from ESP on sda again.

Still an issue in 19.04 Disco.
Just installed again to sdb and just like comment above, said it was installing 
to sdb's ESP, but overwrote my main working install's ESP on sda.
I cannot find any reference to installing to sda.
Installer sees sda as an ESP, but also sees sdb as ESP.

[Bug 1771651] Re: The installation fails with a "GRUB installation failed" message.

2018-05-17 Thread Fred Palmer
Issue is really that to boot in UEFI mode you should have gpt.
And most systems now have gpt as windows in UEFI mode requires gpt. But if 
installing in BIOS/Legacy/CSM boot mode to gpt drive, you must have a bios_grub 
partition which is only 1 or 2MB unformatted with bios_grub flag.

Or if installing in UEFI boot mode to gpt drive, you must have an ESP -
efi system partition which is fat32 with boot flag.

If you do not have correct partitions for boot mode, then grub install fails.
Boot-Repair will tell you that you need the correct partition, and grub should 
at least explain why it is not installing, like Boot-Repair does.

[Bug 1229488] Re: EFI install to removable media not supported

2018-05-19 Thread Fred Palmer
Same issue as posted in #3 with new 18.04.

Install to flash drive, does not use ESP on flash drive, but installs to
ESP on sda. Then system is not bootable without flash drive as it has
overwritten my default boot on sda from /EFI/ubuntu.

I also have changed GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR as defined in /etc/default/grub to have 
unique UEFI and grub menu entries for my internal drive system.
Even though grub-install creates new /EFI/bionic_18_04 folder and entry in 
UEFI. And EFI folder had correct grub.cfg, the system only booted from grub.cfg 
in /EFI/ubuntu,
Or something in grubx64.efi is hard coded to only boot from 
/EFI/ubuntu/grub.cfg.

Better to fix grub not use use hard coded efi_distributor as ubuntu and
fix kluge of kubuntu name change.

[Bug 1816184] [NEW] Disco ubiquity crash

2019-02-15 Thread Fred Palmer
Public bug reported:

Installing latest version as of Feb 15, 2019.

I have multiple installs, so using Something Else install option.
I am able to change partition to use to my sdb8 which is previous Disco install.
I tell it not to use swaps that I still have on sda & sdc.

But I want to install grub to sdb's ESP. It recognizes sdb's ESP as the
efi partition, but when I try to tell it not to use sda1, my ESP/efi
partition it totally locks up with a white box centered on screen with
smaller circle with an X in middle and ? on two lines next to circle
with X in white box.

System totally locked up, so logs not available.

Testing to see if any of these related bugs are fixed in grub.

2018-08-24 Thread Fred Palmer
I have been booting with the same version of UEFI from Asus since April.
But now either UEFI or Ubuntu is deleting all UEFI entries and creating 
multiple new UEFI entries from boot device.

I was having issue of UEFI entry not installing at all. 
fred@bionic-z97:~$ sudo grub-install --bootloader-id ubuntu /dev/sda --recheck
Installing for x86_64-efi platform.
Could not prepare Boot variable: No space left on device
grub-install: error: efibootmgr failed to register the boot entry: Input/output 
error.

I have to boot full install on flash drive and use configfile to boot into 
working install in sda. 
But something is adding entries from flash drive's ESP. And on reboot added a 
second BIOS/grub entry (which is not used)

I can see UEFI entries come from flash drive as it has extra bionic & copy 
folders.
I was then able to add an entry for working install on sda, but reboot erased 
it.

After boot with efi_not_storage_paranoia
And reset of UEFI to defaults & changing back to my preferred settings

[Bug 1780015] Re: Installer gparted creates 2 BIOS boot partition

2018-07-24 Thread Fred Palmer
Installer only asks for bios_grub if you boot install media in BIOS
mode.

With UEFI systems you want to always boot installer in UEFI boot mode
and then it will use ESP - efi system partition.

2018-07-24 Thread Fred Palmer
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1396379 ***
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1396379

Just installed 18.10 to external SSD seen as sdc, but hd0 in UEFI/grub.
I unselected the ESP on sda, and selected external's ESP for efi partition. 
Also used combo box which I know currently does nothing with UEFI installs.

And it still overwrote my main working install's /EFI/ubuntu folder & /EFI/Boot 
folder with new files.
I thought 18.10 has some grub fixes?

[Bug 1781042] Re: 18.04 installation with internet access results in GRUB minimal BASH-like interface with no boot entries

2018-07-10 Thread Fred Palmer
Seems related to this bug. 
Ubuntu 18.10 Cosmic installed /EFI/grub
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1775743

As update during install creates /EFI/grub like in above install.
But some users manually boot into Ubuntu & update grub and it works.

manual boot:
grub> set root=(hd0,gpt8)  #where gpt8 in example is ext4 partition with ubuntu.
grub> configfile /boot/grub/grub.cfg
https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2396045
$ sudo apt-get install grub-efi-amd64
$ sudo update-grub

or it seems Ubiquity installs a different version of grub during install
than an update once booted installs?

[Bug 1265192] Re: Reinstallation wipes out all partitions

2013-12-31 Thread Fred Palmer
In Ubuntu Forums we have seen at least 4 or 5 users with exactly the
same issue.

Installer only offers to reinstall Ubuntu but then overwrites entire hard 
drive. First thought it was user issue, but many have reported it and described 
consisently what they have done.
On re-install it only sees Ubuntu not Windows, but does not reinstall to an 
existing Linux partition, but does the install to entire drive.
Best to only use Something Else on re-install. But auto install should not 
offer incorrect choice.

Similar to

If distributor was updated by version then you would have different
/EFI/version folders and/or different entries in UEFI.

Other versions of Linux do have different names/versions, so grub2 can
do this.

[Bug 1414124] Re: install reports unable to install grub to /dev/sdb

2017-01-21 Thread Fred Palmer
I have tried installing all versions thru 17.04 to sdb and to sdb's ESP.
Every one overwrote my main working installs /EFI/ubuntu folder in sda.
I quickly learned to back that folder up, so I could reset main working
install as default boot.

Same happens when I do a full install to flash drive, it overwrites my
main working installs /EFI/ubuntu on sda. But if flash drive grub/shim
also needs to be /EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi. And this bug report covers that,
although related.

Grub only installs to sda.

I have created ESP on sdb, told installer to install to sdb, it says

overwrites my default boot /EFI/ubuntu on sda's ESP.

Also issue with full install to flash drive or any external drive as sdb
or higher letter. It installs grub to internal drive. If external it

[Bug 1448707] Re: cant launch Windows 8 with the Ubuntu grub2 boot(the windows option doesnt work)

2015-07-08 Thread Fred Palmer
Have you tried adding this to Windows BCD with Windows bcdEdit?
bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\ubuntu\grubx64.efi

Grub only works is secure boot is off. Not sure if shimx64.efi would
work from Windows with secure boot on or not.

Many systems need work arounds as vendors/mfgs violate UEFI standards
and use description as part of UEFI boot. And only description allowed
is "Windows".  In those cases another work around is to copy grubx64.efi
or shimx64.efi into /EFI/Boot and rename to bootx64.efi. Then in UEFI
select hard drive as boot  option.

Not a shim issue.
Windows only only installs to NTFS partitions. Or drives with space for NTFS 
partition.
Also Windows installer booted in BIOS mode will not install to gpt partitioned

[Bug 1283830] Re: win8.1+winxp+linux: winxp don't detected by update-grub

2015-04-12 Thread Fred Palmer
Not grub issue.
Windows only has boot files in one NTFS primary partition with boot flag.
It looks like you may have run Boot-Repair which copied boot files from sda1 to 
sda2.
But your XP install probably has no boot files in it for os-prober to find.
If all installs of Windows are on primary partitions you can move boot flag to 
that install and run Windows repairs to add the correct boot files for Widnows.
Then os-prober can find it.

Otherwise it is a two step boot process as Windows adds all installs to BCD and 
from grub you boot Windows, then from Windows choose which Windows to boot.
Installing XP after Windows 8 may be another Windows issue also as XP cannot 
add 8 to its boot.ini. But updating Windows 8 shoudl then add XP to BCD to boot 
from Windows 8.

[Bug 1418706] Re: Vivid: UEFI: blank drive incorrectly detected as existing BIOS-mode install

2015-04-13 Thread Fred Palmer
It is my understanding that ESP is the correct full Initials (name) for
what we often just call the efi partition.

 EFI System Partition (ESP)
Ubuntu installers have referred to the ESP by the name "EFI boot partition,"

But use of boot partition has confused new users thinking that is
Ubuntu's boot partition or they need another /boot partition or do not
need a /boot partition when they may need one.

It now looks like in 12.04.3 that both 6 and 4 are missing from end of file 
name. The change from 3.9 to 3.10 added a character, so one more was dropped 
from end of file. 
Seems like an issue with file name length on ISO. 
Original file on server is probably correct.

[Bug 1256874] Re: warning colour needed when the entire disk will be used

2013-12-17 Thread Fred Palmer
The issue is not just the 4 primary partitions in use with MBR. We are
seeing the the forums many users over writing UEFI Windows with gpt
partitioning. Again not sure if just user error or why it is occurring
but it is a lot more than one or two accidentally picking wrong choice.

Several have chosen LVM as it says 'easier' partitioning and it seems to
overwrite entire drive without any warnings at all. Same with encrypted
LVM.

Several have installed with dual boot Windows, had major issues with
Ubuntu, so they elected to reinstall. Menu said overwrite existing
Ubuntu install, but erased entire drive, including Windows & recovery
partitions.

Similar issue. I use grub loop mount to boot ISO, so I did not know if that was 
issue. Could not get Ubiquity to start (or seem to). Tried rebooting ISO 
several times.
Then tried using commands in Icon's properties at command line and it said 
Ubuquity was running, but nothing was happening.
Then rebooted and changed command line from sh to sudo bash and it ran without 
issue.
The sh command in Icon did not seem to be launching shell but bash did?

It seems to be in several different places. Original install under

partitions with essential boot code already in them are offered as
choices for grub2 to install into.

And it automounts a partition in sda (random partition?) as /isodevice.
So then it will  not let install to another partition on sda.

Your boot entries with kernel 3.19 would be from your 15.04 install.

2015-09-16 Thread Fred Palmer
I changed GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR so I could tell which install was which.
I have my main working 14.04LTS install on sda, but install other test installs 
on sdb.
I try to install grub to ESP - efi system partition on sdb and installer even 
says installing to sdb. But it always installs to sda.
I then try renaming so I can keep them separate in UEFI.

All of these are grubx64.efi with different grub.cfg with  different configfile 
entries for different UUIDs.
/efi/BOOT/bootx64.efi 
/efi/trusty/grubx64.efi 
 /efi/ubuntu/grubx64.efi 
 /efi/vivid/grubx64.efi 

But they all use the one grub.cfg in /efi/ubuntu.

[Bug 1289977] Re: Ubuntu 14.04 Update breaks grub, resulting in "error: symbol 'grub_term_highlight_color' not found"

2014-05-02 Thread Fred Palmer
Boot-Repair does the rename for 'buggy' UEFI. Many HP & Sonys only boot
with one of the fixes as the UEFI is hard coded to only boot Windows.
The rename then lets UEFI think it boots Windows efi file but really
boots to grub menu. But then Windows entry in UEFI only boots grub.

bkpbootmgfw.efi
That file is the Windows boot file and grub or shim are renamed to bootmgfw.efi.
Best to undo that before anything else, either with Boot-Repair or manually as 
that confuses all the other issues:

Always say no until proven that you only can boot Windows entry from UEFI menu.
buggy-kernel detected. Do you want to activate [Backup and rename Windows EFI 
files]? yes (if any choice fails, please retry with the other)

To undo & to rename files to their original names, you just need to tick
the "Restore EFI backups" option of Boot-Repair.

[Bug 1366546] Re: Ubuntu doesn't provide \EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.EFI for UEFI systems

2014-11-10 Thread Fred Palmer
I have not read the spec but saw this:

UEFI 2.3 -it is permitted for the firmware to treat the EFI system partition in 
the same way as removable media or use bootx64.efi 
http://mjg59.dreamwidth.org/4125.html

And many UEFI implementations, all of HP & Sony that I have seen in
Ubuntu forums will only boot "Windows" and usually copying grubx64.efi
is one work around that then lets users boot.

Real solution is that vendors do not violate UEFI spec.

Vendors violated UEFI specs - 
http://hwe.ubuntu.com/docs/ubuntu-bios-uefi-requirements.pdf
[quote]Firmware should not enforce any boot policy other than the mechanism 
specified in Section 3 of the
UEFI 2.3.1 specification [UEFI 2.3.1]. Specifically, firmware should not modify 
boot behaviour de-

2013-01-17 Thread Fred Palmer
Edit - found reference to the bit that is set, but need to find how to reset 
it. It is intended for other efi type partitions like a vendor recovery so 
users would not damage a vendor recovery. If HP is setting it on the efi 
partition it is wrong. Bug is not really related to current issue.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+s...fi/+bug/811485
Quote from UEFI spec:
Partition creators may prevent UEFI firmware from examining and using a 
specific partition by setting bit 1 of the Partition Attributes (see 5.3.3) 
which will exclude the partition as a potential ESP.

The live installer boots with syslinux for BIOS and grub for UEFI.

So I think you have to edit grub menu for persistence as with UEFI syslinux is

Just installed 12.04. Same issue but worse. Could not get to graphical screens 
at all. Alt-f2 gave me command line. Did updates Nov 10, 2011 and still would 
not fully boot.
Uninstalled 173, installed nvidia-current , finally got to gui, but it used 
default video as it then popped up saying I could install proprietary drivers.

[Bug 604743] [NEW] grub-pc in gpt drive does not boot other drives

2010-07-12 Thread Fred Palmer
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: grub2

grub-pc installed on gpt drive sdb boots Ubuntu install on sdb but will not 
boot windows in sda or other Ubuntu installs in sdc.
Since I was booting directly from sdb I tried changing drive numbers 0,1, & 2 
in set root with same results.

Windows boot error:
error: no such device 046 (correct UUID for win on sda1 NTFS)
error: invalid signature

Ubuntu boot error for install on sdc5
error: not such device 1174... (corrrect UUID for Ubuntu on sdc5)
error: you need to load the kernel first

Same as above for sdc7 with correct UUID for sdc7 shown.

[Bug 604743] Fix Worked insmod part_msdos

2010-07-12 Thread Fred Palmer
I use c and at grub> prompt insmod part_msdos.

Both windows and Ubuntu then booted ok (a little slow it seemed in 
switching to Ubuntu, windows is always slow so I could not tell any 
difference.)

Glad you already had a fix. How would I have found this. I occasionally 
review grub errors and other documentation.

Thanks,

Fred

I added insmod part_msdos to 40_custom & both windows on sda1 and Ubuntu 
on sdc5 booted without any issues.

Thanks
