Package: grub-installer Version: 1.32 Severity: grave When I install Debian on computer with other operation system, and want to setup grub not on main boot section but only on Linux partition (hd0,4) to use bootmanager from other OS, If user mistakenly choose wrong partition (in my case it was (hd0,3) ) he will get error message, after it will be possible to go back to menu and try again steps, But it will be not possible to install grub at all (on right partition). I suggest that grub-installer should detect possible Linux partitions for installing and show them to user. Or at least show partition list on page where user must enter partition number. And the best if it will also allow to reset grub partition if its not possible to install to what user enter. I am using expert install from 28.08.2008 debian-testing-i386-netinst.iso in Graphic and Text modes, tried both grub and grub2. System was successfully installed only after reboot and new install with correct (hd0,4) settings. Ubuntu also have this problem. I can try again to re-install system if it will be needed for testing.

Hi, similar to the installation-reports bugs, I'm closing the grub-installer reports below. These are reports for Debian 4 / 6 / 7 / 9 where grub-installer fails (for various reasons). There have been numerous changes/improvements on this topics in the past, and also because of the age of the reports we should consider these problems as being fixed (or it is even reported in the bugs that they are fixed). They are most likely of no use anymore for recent releases. If you know, that the issue you reported (and gets closed here) is still existing in recent installation images, please file a new report for that with up-to-date details! Thank you for filing these bug reports, they have been very useful at the time they were filed! https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=785149 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=489005 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=610116 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=611713 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=612420 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=621923 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=647267 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=659116 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=665856 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=666552 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=668923 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=686955 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=690515 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=690592 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=702731 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=729411 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=771467 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=780115 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=806164 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=806849 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=416986 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=252009 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=292513 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=310798 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=391489 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=489006 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=578338 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=582367 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=229128 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=463842 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=497168 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=500079 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=516392 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=520361 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=544949 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=549703 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=557242 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=580461 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=587699 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=588670 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=596877 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=612025 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=618498 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=639713 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=666559 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=699456 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=703901 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=707604 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=711330 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=609939 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=498831 Cheers Holger -- Holger Wansing <hwansing@mailbox.org> PGP-Fingerprint: 496A C6E8 1442 4B34 8508 3529 59F1 87CA 156E B076
