(Get the code!)
I've already sent crash report from installer, but since I'm not quite sure how it's handled, might as well follow up with this.
I've been tinkering with ubuntu server and some old HW. Long story short, since I'm not used to CLI/text like install and missed that installer reverse order of HDDs I ended up with disk setup where /boot, /boot/efi along with LVM handling root were on /sdb
To be precise:
sdb:
/boot
/boot/efi
/lvm/root
sda:
/lvm/root
This failed at some point with message refering boot/grub could not be found on /dev/sda1:
"could not get path to dev from kname sda1"
If I set up everything on sda it works fine.
