Not sure if this is helpful but I did some playing and I wonder if this has something to do with how grub-pc interacts with startupmanager. When I try to install startupmanager on a machine with grub-pc:
la...@lance-desktop:~$ sudo apt-get install startupmanager Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done The following extra packages will be installed: grub Suggested packages: grub-doc mdadm The following packages will be REMOVED: grub-pc The following NEW packages will be installed: grub startupmanager 0 upgraded, 2 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded. Need to get 0B/525kB of archives. After this operation, 201kB of additional disk space will be used. Do you want to continue [Y/n]? n Abort. Of course I don't know if all the machines effected had startupmanager installed or not. Just a thought. -- apt wants to remove grub2 for machines that did upgrade legacy grub https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/445653 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
