LP bug - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/1430074 [Impact] Administrators installing Ubuntu on systems with more than 26 hard disks. [Test case] 1) start a Ubuntu Server install on a server with > 26 disks: /dev/sdaa should exist. 2) Complete the installation Without the fix, the installation should fail at the "Install the GRUB boot loader on a hard disk" task. With the fix, the installation should complete successfully. [Regression Potential] This has a low regression potential as it only changes enough of grub-installer to allow matching of disks of the naming scheme /dev/[shv]d[a-z]*, where it was previously only matching for one occurrence of the drive letter ([a-z]). This matching only happens when doing the initial installation of a system; further runs will rely directly on grub-install without trying to match device names. -- == Comment: #0 - RODOLFO LOPEZ <lopezro@us.ibm.com> - 2015-07-27 12:55:29 == ---Problem Description--- PROBLEM DESCRIPTION ------------------------------------ I start the installation of the base operating system in UBUNTU 15.10 and at the end of the install I get the below pop-up message: lqqqqqqqu [!!] Install the GRUB boot loader on a hard disk tqqqqqqqqk      x x      x Installation step failed x      x An installation step failed.
