Source: grub2 Version: 2.02~beta2-22 Followup-For: Bug #623124 Dear Maintainer,
I've repeatedly tried to install stock Debian 8.2.0 stable (x86_64) on an Intel server system containing: /dev/sda - 80 GB (IDE) /dev/sdb - 130 GB (SATA) BIOS is non-UEFI, AMBIOS. MBR/DOS partition tables are present on both drives (created via the Debian installer itself). Installation is a clean one, with no other operating system present - via USB removable DVD-ROM. Partitioning scheme (manual) is: /dev/sda1 - 2 GB /boot, ext4 /dev/sda2 - 70 GB / ext4 /dev/sda3 - 8 GB swap /dev/sdb1 - 130GB /var ext4 The installation process performs normally. At the end of the install, grub does not install itself in /dev/sda (master boot record) and the log on the Alt-F4 console says: grub-installer: Installing for i386-pc platform grub-installer: warning: Attempting to install GRUB to a disk with multiple partition labels. This is not supported yet.. grub-installer: warning: Embedding is not possible. GRUB can only be installed in this setup by using blocklists. However, blocklists are UNRELIABLE and their use is discouraged.. grub-installer: error:: wiil not proceed with blocklists. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.2 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=ro_RO.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=ro_RO.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Thanks for your help.
