Ouch. I just met this monster. I bought a Dell Inspiron 1545 a few weeks ago with Win 7. Quickly and happily rushed home, burned Karmic and installed under Wubi. As we all know, THAT was a mistake. Anyway, I finally bit the bullet and dual-installed Karmic w/o wubi. After weeks of hair pulling, I finally got the bcm43 wireless fix and then last night, no warning, I got the dreaded "?t" symbol not found error. As I was without wireless, I re-installed Karmic. Note: I was effectively blocked from both Karmic AND Windows! What a HUGE p.i.t.a.
Between the wubi/grub fiasco and the eternal battle to achieve wifi, I agree that this release should have been held back. Neither problem does linux/ubuntu any favors and the combination leaves a really bad taste. But breaking the bootloader is criminal. At this juncture, I can't open my mouth to advocate ubuntu to my friends and I'm on the verge of giving up ubuntu myself. And I'm an ubuntu lover! Fix your stuff people. It should NOT take hours and hours or practically a computer user certificate education to use your product. -- grub fails after running Windows https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/441941 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
