> Ok, then it means that 2) the Grub Error 15 you got is not a bug if you did not let grub install.
Grub was working fine before the install. I specifically did not want Ubuntu to touch Grub. So whatever happened to Grub should not have happened, as Ubuntu should have left the working Grub alone. > It sounds very strange to me that you can boot when you install with the > alternate CD and not > with the Live CD, these releases are supposed to install exactly the same > files. That's what I thought, too, and I was reluctant to even try the alternative disk.

And I did check the disks for defects before running them. I always do. In fact, I get the same results with the Kubuntu disk as I did with the Ubuntu disk. > Also if you can reproduce the problem with busybox, can your boot your > computer without "splash" > and "quiet" and take a photo of your screen that shows exactly all error > message you get? I will have that ready for you by tomorrow. I will reinstall the bad version and photograph everything. > Thanks for keeping active on your bug report, it is really appreciated.
