** Description changed: Binary package hint: ubiquity - Installed Ubuntu 10.04.1 during iso testing using the Wubi installer. I select French as the language of choice and visibility aid 3. The installation proceeded normally, rebooting, and Ubiquity proceeded normally (all screens in French) and then rebooted. I selected Windows (I have other Ubuntu partitions so using grub), then I select Ubuntu from the Windows Boot Manager. - The only options were to select Windows, or my other Ubuntu installations. No entries were present for the Wubi install that had just completed. + Pressing the SKIP button in Ubiquity during a WUBI install stops the package lupin being installed with the result that grub cannot detect the loopmounted install. + After completing the installation, wubildr still retrieves the grub menu from the root.disk but only the external OS's are available (usually just Windows). - Looking in /etc/grub.d/ I see there is no 10_lupin entry which would - explain the missing Wubi entries. - - I forgot to mention that I clicked on the SKIP button towards the end of - the Installation. I did this on the spur of the moment to see what would - happen. I ran it again this time in Spanish. Clicking on "SKIP" - (whatever it says in Spanish) near the end of the install results in the - same issue. - - I am going to repeat in English, see what I am skipping, and confirm - that it's reproducible: there are two SKIP buttons presented. If you - click on the second - the text "Checking for packages to install" shows - briefly and then disappears, then it results in the problem (I guess - this is where it installs lupin-support). - - I haven't tried clicking on the first SKIP button, which refers to - Configuring Apt, Scanning local repositories, and Security updates (it - flashes by pretty fast). - - It seems that it shouldn't offer to skip something that is important. I - assumed it was something like looking up the network time (and since not - connected, thought it was ok to skip). + When you chroot into the wubi install you can see that everything is + there except not the lupin packages and the 10_lupin scripts in + /etc/grub.d/ that are required to get the wubi install added to + grub.cfg.
