Comments/Problems:
The installer said it installed grub, but on reboot I got a "Non-system
disk" error.
Tried to boot to the rescue option with as shell on /dev/sda1 and rejig
grub but so far no good. When I run mount, I notice this:
tmpfs on /dev type tmpfs (rw, relatime, mode=755)
which seems a little weird.
System still not booting properly.
