Based on the logs that you submitted, the installation media managed to boot in UEFI mode, not in legacy mode. When booting your machine, can you press DELETE, F2, F9 or similar to enter firmware and verify that /only/ legacy mode of booting is attempt, without UEFI/Secureboot at all (neither as higher, nor "and") Regards, Dimitri. > > 2014-02-27 11:34 GMT+01:00 Dimitri John Ledkov <launch...@surgut.co.uk>: > >> To the original bug reporter here: >> - what operating systems are installed on your machine? >> - are they booting in UEFI or Legacy (BIOS) mode? >> - how many drives are present on your system and which one did you want to >> install ubuntu on? >> >> It appears that two drives are present, and resize_use_free was chosen >> that resized installation on /dev/sda. >> /lib/partman/automatically_partition/10resize_use_free/choices: paragraph: >> 1 1048576-368050175 367001600 primary ntfs /dev/sda1 >> /lib/partman/automatically_partition/10resize_use_free/choices: paragraph: >> 2 368050176-161343340543 160975290368 primary ntfs /dev/sda2 >> /lib/partman/automatically_partition/10resize_use_free/choices: paragraph: >> 8 161344389120-186202389503 24858000384 logical ext4 >> /dev/sda8 >> /lib/partman/automatically_partition/10resize_use_free/choices: paragraph: >> 6 186202980352-201200979967 14997999616 logical linux-swap >> /dev/sda6 >> /lib/partman/automatically_partition/10resize_use_free/choices: paragraph: >> 7 201201811456-266193600511 64991789056 logical ext4 >> /dev/sda7 >> /lib/partman/automatically_partition/10resize_use_free/choices: paragraph: >> 5 266201989120-1000203091967 734001102848 logical ntfs >> /dev/sda5 >> parted_server: main_loop: iteration 98 >> >> But /dev/sda does not have UEFI partition, nor one was created. >> >> ** Also affects: partman-auto (Ubuntu) >> Importance: Undecided >> Status: New >> >> -- >> You received this bug notification because you are subscribed to a >> duplicate bug report (1278597). >> https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1277865 >> >> Title: >> Cannot install Ubuntu 14.04 on EFI hardware >> >> Status in “grub-installer” package in Ubuntu: >> Confirmed >> Status in “partman-auto” package in Ubuntu: >> New >> >> Bug description: >> I've tried installing Ubuntu 14.04 alongside Windows 8 64bit in EFI >> mode and grub-installer keeps crashing. >> >> ProblemType: Bug >> DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 >> Package: ubiquity 2.17.5 [modified: >> lib/partman/automatically_partition/question] >> ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.13.0-8.27-generic 3.13.2 >> Uname: Linux 3.13.0-8-generic x86_64 >> ApportVersion: 2.13.2-0ubuntu2 >> Architecture: amd64 >> CasperVersion: 1.337 >> Date: Sat Feb 8 08:18:05 2014 >> InstallCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/casper/vmlinuz.efi >> file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu.seed boot=casper quiet splash -- >> LiveMediaBuild: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Alpha amd64 (20140208) >> ProcEnviron: >> LANGUAGE=en_US >> PATH=(custom, no user) >> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 >> SHELL=/bin/bash >> SourcePackage: grub-installer >> UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) >> >> To manage notifications about this bug go to: >> >> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/1277865/+subscriptions >> >> > > -- > You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu > Installer Team, which is subscribed to grub-installer in Ubuntu. > https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1277865 > > Title: > Cannot install Ubuntu 14.04 on EFI hardware > > To manage notifications about this bug go to: > https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/1277865/+subscriptions -- Regards, Dimitri. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1277865 Title: Cannot install Ubuntu 14.04 on EFI hardware To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/1277865/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
