Bug Description
Sunday Feb. 14. 2010.
EEEPC 900 CELERON, 1GB RAM, 16GB fixed flashcard with Xandros, 8 GB extra Flashcard attached so i can install EEEBUNTU unto it.
Problem with installing eb4-b1.
http://
FATAL ERROR ..."running grub-install HD0" (95% installed)
/var/log/syslog could not be retrieved.
/var/log/partman is attached.
I used utorrent and downloaded eb4-b1.
Formatted a Kingston 8GB USB stick and formatted it as instructed to FAT32.
Then is used Vindows Vista with unetbootin-
The eb4-b1.iso file got installed into the USB.
Then i attached USB unto my EEEPC 900 and booted it.
When the eb4-b1 was up and running i chose Install eb4,
followed the instructions as i have done before with EEEBUNTU 3.0.
I always choose to format 100% of the flashcard.
The install procedure worked perfectly well until 95%.
Then i got the FATAL ERROR "running grub-install HD0" and the install process stopped.
I can still use my EEEPC 900 Celeron - from the USB stick and write this text with gedit.
Two times i have tried to install unto the flashcard, but exactly the same problem.
