Hi folks, the referred bug#292724 on the debian site was "fixed" in 2005 ... so obviously its not our bug they fixed: to me the pb happened when trying to install UbuntuStudio 8.04.1 (uses the alternate installer) on my Acer Aspire 5930G. My Steps: -resized the partition using the RescueCD/Gparted. - booting installation from the named UbuntuCD - choose to partition manually - selecting SDA3 to be reformatted to Ext3 and mounted as root. (was a primary NTFS partition). - when selected to write grub to boot block sda3 the reported error massage came. After runnung mad for two days or so I realized that the installer didn't changed the partition type to 83. I could install LILO without being affected by the wrong partition type. Seams to be a small bug with big consequences especially to newbies. Should be easy to fix it?!
