If it's not then you have to give it a path not a device. Like grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sdc and then it uses /mnt/boot/grub instead of /boot/grub. -- Felix Zielcke Proud Debian Maintainer and GNU GRUB developer -- beta installer left ASUS EeePC 900 unbootable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/430333 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
