I'm always working with old computers. They don't have a separate EFI partition (most of them can't handle it anyways) and usually I choose to install GRUB in the root partition, thus I need to make it bootable. I assure you there's nothing decorative about it in these systems. When I first tried wheezy in one of these computers, I kept getting unbootable installations, and finally I saw that ticking on the bootable flag did the trick. > And what do you propose for this? :-) I propose this be re-enabled by default on the guided partitioning if the debian installation media is NOT booted in EFI mode. Unless I'm grossly misunderstanding the issue as I explained above. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
