Hello. I can confirm too. After last update in U12.04. I have no GPT table - I use old DOS way. Grub2 in /dev/sda3 (not in MBR).
At boot I get now: "error: out of partition" but the systems boots (even without key pressing). $ sudo grub-setup -f /dev/sda3 grub-setup: warn: Attempting to install GRUB to a partitionless disk or to a partition. This is a BAD idea.. grub-setup: warn: Embedding is not possible. GRUB can only be installed in this setup by using blocklists. However, blocklists are UNRELIABLE and their use is discouraged.. grub-setup: error: non-sector-aligned data is found in the core file. $ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/972250 Title: regression from 4k_sectors.patch: "non-sector-aligned data is found in the core file" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/972250/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
