I am not sure if it is the same bug, but I believe so. I have recently installed Feisty on a Dell Optiplex 745. It only has one SATA drive, and no IDE drives.
LiveCD started without any problems, and I was able to install Kubuntu on the system easily. However, after that the installed system did not boot. It would just hang for ~3 seconds, and then stop, and bring me to the ash shell. I tried to start it with acpi=off, and other changes I found on the net, but to no avail. At last, however, I realized that the problem was that the grub entry was incorrect: the root was set to /dev/hda1, while the correct root is, obviously /dev/sda1. After changing it in menu.lst, I was able to boot into the system. However, this is still a problem since when I installed the 2.6.20-16 linux image, it also set the root to /dev/hda1, and again I had to set it to /dev/sda1 manually. -- IDE Drive is Listed as SATA with Feisty Live CD and install causes GRUB to be improperly configured (Error 15 on boot) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/107798 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
