grub install failed :(appears to be looking for uEFI when it's an old BIOS box) `ubuntu-bug ubiquity` .. on hitting OKAY to restart box.. OH NO, SOMETHING WENT WRONG.. hit enter and again OH NO, SOMETHING WENT WRONG.. hit enter and again OH NO, SOMETHING WENT WRONG.. i got bored of the loop & SysRq REISUB'd the box NOTE; I manually filed the bug report at terminal; CTRL+A:LT+T to open term. and I wondered if the installer tried to `ubuntu-bug` again that created the issue with shutdown, ie. started a process that was behind the 'install finished, press enter to reboot' but that's opinion. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1907180 Title: hirsute QA-test install; 'grub-install /dev/sda failed' .. box regularly used for QA-test installs (BIOS only box, but uEFI error?)
