In order to report a bug, can you tell me what I should be seeing when my PC boots in EFI mode. Is it a GRUB menu containing Ubuntu and Windows?
That should be exactly what you ought to be seeing. It possibly could have been effected by the failed first attempt at installing, but I doubt it. You said "When I start the computer up, I do not get a GRUB menu. I can only start Ubuntu from the computer's F12 boot menu. It will then show a GRUB menu, which includes Windows Boot loader".
I've never see anything like this! When you start the boot menu, what exactly do you see? I imagine either the re-installed, or the original install was told to install to a partition. I think that would have caused the problem. From memory, I think if the advanced options were used (the 'something else' item in the installer), and you installed to a partition instead of to a disk, then grub doesn't get put on as a disk-boot installation.
Also, which package should I report the bug under? Why should I report it from the Live USB?
The problem occurred while running the installer. The installer is called 'ubiquity', and that doesn't exist on your installation, only on the disk. However, if you are seeing a grub screen with both Ubuntu and Windows on the boot menu, then that is where the problem lies, and it is not a bug. Some screenshots would help, you would need to use a camera though. A screenshot of the menu that comes up when you press f12, and one of the grub screen you get to from there, if that is what you are seeing.
If I've misunderstood, please describe exactly how you get into Ubuntu. Regards, Barry -- http://barrydrake.co.nr/ -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UKTeam/
