[Bug 1807385] [NEW] Software Updater keeps repeating same updates
Public bug reported: Software Updater keeps showing the same updates over and over again even though it shows the updates were successful.

[Bug 1462676] [NEW] grub fails to install. x86_64-efi system Windows 8.1 primary
Public bug reported: Ubuntu 15.04 x86_64 Windows 8.1 is my primary OS. I tried to install Ubuntu along side Windows. I created 2 partitions (swap and / [ext4]).

[Bug 1462676] Re: grub fails to install. x86_64-efi system Windows 8.1 primary
Actually, it's not corrupt. I discovered the problem. Apparently grub will not install to the MBR of an EFI system. I discovered this purely by accident as I found this information absolutely nowhere. It will however install to the Windows EFI partition. So I solved my own problem. Someone might want to update the installer so that if it is running in EFI, it should automatically choose the existing EFI partition to install to as default instead of the MBR of the HDD (which will always fail). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1462676 Title: grub fails to install. x86_64-efi system Windows 8.1 primary To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/1462676/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1462676] Re: grub fails to install. x86_64-efi system Windows 8.1 primary
No... you are not listening. The reason it failed is because it tried to install to /dev/sda instead of /dev/sda1. Aparently in an EFI system that does not work. If my EFI partition was corrupt, I would not have been able to boot into Windows either. The moment I realized what it was doing, I pointed it to /dev/sda1 specifically (which it should have known to do as it was running on an EFI system) then it worked. I don't know how many other ways to explain this. That is why I wrote that perhaps, the writers of the installer script should take into account an EFI system and maybe have it look for the EFI system partition instead of always defaulting to the MBR instead. That was just a friendly suggestion. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1462676 Title: grub fails to install. x86_64-efi system Windows 8.1 primary To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/1462676/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Well, then it somehow corrected itself through no intervention on my part other than to specify /dev/sda1 I guess my DELL is possessed like Christine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1462676 Title: grub fails to install. x86_64-efi system Windows 8.1 primary To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/1462676/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
