wubildr not found

[Evan]

Samsung r780
Has an initial recovery partition, then NTFS partitions for C:, D:, and SYSTEM.

First phase of the install completes fine (the Windows side), but upon rebooting the wubildr not found message appears as it scans the drives.

This message is issued for every partition that doesn't contain wubildr in its root. It searches all partitions and issues "Try (hdx,y): <file system type>:" and then appends "no wubildr" iif it doesn't find (hdx,y)/wubildr, and then continues to the next. So it's normal to see e.g. "Try (hd0,0): NTFS5: No wubildr"

If it doesn't find it in all partitions then it issues a different message "grldr not found" (probably an old grub4dos hardcode). If you are using r200 then it's probably locking up when it finds the wubildr anyway.

I'm aware; this bug is more of a note to myself to investigate further.

OK it sounded like bug 693671 which is about r200, so I wasn't certain.
