This is still broken for me in Trusty 14.04.5
Interestingly it only appears broken on servers with a storage
controller AND disks on the motherboard scsi host (sata or sas). That
may or may not be pertinent/related, but I've so far been unable to get
it to break in the same way on hosts with a bun
I'm still hitting this. Though this could be partly blamed on the fact that i'm
setting `grub-installer/bootdev ...` dynamically at `partman/early_command`.
Fix for me was to add the following to the early_command as well:
. /usr/share/debconf/confmodule;\
db_fset grub-installer/bootdev
So I've been doing a lot of work in this area recently. After looking
closely through partman-partitioning, and create_new_label forces a gpt
partition table if the volume is above 2TB. This makes sense, since
disks >2TB tend to have issue with msdos partition tables.
Unfortunately my slightly ol

Getting a dialog that wants me to confirm the disk I've selected. Attaching a

So apparently it's not fixed for trusty.

I'm also experiencing issues with grub-installer ignoring/overriding the
bootdev setting on Ubuntu Server 14.04.2 w/ Software RAID (at least when

I had to resort to using the same type of workaround as mentioned in
post #27, so I thought I'd share some details o

Same problem here. Using custom preseed file to automatically burn grub
on fakeraid volume /dev/md126 (instead of /dev/md126p1 due to an other
bug #1370368).
So adding :

Hi Dave,
I've been working with Canonical on this issue since I posted all of my
information.
I have the following as part of my preseed:
d-i partman/early_command string \
USBDEV=$(list-devices usb-partition | sed "s/\(.*\)./\1/");\
BOOTDEV=$(list-devices disk | grep -v "$USBDEV" | head -1);\
@david-partain I was able to work around the error that I was
experiencing by ensuring that there was a valid partition table on
/dev/sdb.
That makes sense as well. There's really no way to install bootloader to
the mbr of /dev/sdb if the mbr doesn't exist because there is no
partition table.

@david-partain, this has been fixed in trusty, what you are experiencing
is a new bug altogether.
I was able to verify that forcing the bootdev in the preseed file does
indeed force grub to install onto /dev/sdb when using the non-netboot
install.
However, when using the same preseed file with th
Hi,
As far as I know, this is NOT fixed for trusty. For grins, I downloaded
the latest mini.iso yesterday (from
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty/main/installer-
amd64/current/images/netboot/ and dated 05-Apr-2014 11:23), used
unetbootin to put it on a USB stick, and tried to install.
So two things, please (1) verify that the trusty version does indeed fix
this issue _and_ (2) if this is backported to any other version we'll
need to ensure Colin's fix for the regression this patch introduced is
also incorporated and tested. Please update, verify and then subscribe
sponsors again
Hi,
I will also note that if you download the latest trusty min.iso, put it
on a usb stick, boot from that and install, you'll get exactly the same
error.
Cheers,
David
