Bug Description
Binary package hint: grub
After a successful installation from the alternate CD of the Feisty final release the system doesn't boot. It fails with "GRUB Loading stage1.5Read Error". Trying to boot from the first hard disk with the install CD fails, too: "Error 25: Disk read Error".
I guess this is due to a mismatch of disk drive names. The hard disk is connected to an ITE8211F ide controller on an Asus P5LD2/C board. But partman-lvm listed it as a SCSI drive (sda). This is similar to https:/
As I'm in my office at the moment I have no access to the hard disk I installed Feisty on. Which further information do you need?
Thanks for your bug report.
In feisty, grub does not access the drives anymore via hda or sda but via UUID-label.
Please boot up the system with the live CD and check the file /boot/grub/menu.lst if the UUID-labels are used.
