Bug#413647: debian-installer-manual: In Appendix D.3, common problem with Grub



Package: debian-installer-manual
Severity: minor

Hi !

Each time I install a Debian using Appendix D.3, I run into a problem
when using grub-install :

Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.

The solution is to use the following command before :

cat /proc/mounts > /etc/mtab

Here is the wording :

You may get this error when executing grub-install:

Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device.

In this case, use the following command to solve this issue:

cat /proc/mounts > /etc/mtab
