Hi Guys, The first issue was the partitioning left no room for the grub on /dev/sda as Philip mentioned. ( I no longer get grub-install /dev/sda' failed ) Thanks Philip Now the original setup does work... if its not encrypted. The desktop installer does not insert the request for password in the grub boot to unlock the LUKS partitions so that the LVM system can be seen. The boot now fails on waiting for the encrypted disk. Since this is a different issue, I'll see if I can convert this to a question. Perhaps someone has done this before? # Encrypted partitions /dev/sda3 /dev/sdb3 # /sda2 is /boot partition non-encrypted non-LVM pvcreate /dev/sda3 pvcreate /dev/sdb3 sudo vgcreate Stripe2SSD /dev/sda3 /dev/sdc3 sudo lvcreate -i 2 -I 256 -L 247000M Stripe2SSD -n root sudo lvcreate -i 2 -I 256 -L 20000M Stripe2SSD -n swap # manual install and Assigned the /, swap. /boot Boot fails waiting for device ( the encrypted partition ) Thanks for your help! PS, The mini.iso does not seem to support stripe -i -I setup to get the speed of raid0 and the flexibility of LVM. Am I missing something? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1347405 Title: Atempting 14.04 install into LVM striped drives 'grub-install /dev/sda' failed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/1347405/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
