2006-03-29 13:33:05 Colin Watson grub-installer: statusexplanation Bugzilla status=NEEDINFO, product=Ubuntu, component=grub-installer This bug occurs because os-prober does not always manage to report the contents of mounted filesystems. This is a known bug, and is not fixed in Dapper as far as I know.
2006-03-29 13:34:36 Colin Watson description In the kubuntu installation on the end of stage 1 it will be installed the grub boot-manager. The grub-installation not recognized 1. the OS/2 Boot Manager, 2. the Windows combined Win98/Winxp installation, 3. the Linux Ubuntu-Installation (Gnome-Version). I wish to install the grub-boot-manager into the kubuntu-root-partition, but the install process not asked the user wherein to install the boot-manager. The installer installed the grub-manager into the master boot record and the system can boot only kubuntu, not windows, not ubuntu (gnome-version). The kubuntu preview version has this error not contained. If a filesystem is mounted in the partitioner, os-prober will not report its contents, so any operating system installed on the mounted filesystem will not be included in the boot loader configuration.
