attempted install again to - dell [optiplex] 780 (c2q-q9400, 8gb, amd/ati cedar radeon hd 5000/6000/7350/8350)
identical install to sda1; but ISO written this time with `sudo dd bs=4M oflag=sync status=progress of=/dev/sdb if=/de2900/ubuntu_64/hirsute- desktop-amd64.iso` https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1923690 I wondering if my last comment was missing the /target/boot/efi reason for mount; is it trying to copy from there?? and not to there... it's clear during install the partition is /dev/sda and boot loader was being written to sda on the dialog screens --messages-- Apr 14 01:33:23 ubuntu grub-installer: info: Running chroot /target grub-install --force --target x86_64-efi "/dev/sda" Apr 14 01:33:23 ubuntu grub-installer: Installing for x86_64-efi platform.

Apr 14 01:33:35 ubuntu grub-installer: error: Running 'grub-install --force --target x86_64-efi "/dev/sda"' failed. so identical to bdmurray's comment; but disk space used is only at 53% and 3% inodes used on sda1 (only system partition being used). ubuntu@ubuntu:/$ df -h |grep target /dev/sda1 658G 328G 297G 53% /target /dev/sdb2 4.9M 4.9M 2.0K 100% /target/boot/efi just as last time.. but is it trying to write to sdb2?? which would explain the messages (though they say sda correctly) there is plenty of disk space (297GB) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1923134 Title: replace prior 18.04 installation with 21.04 (no format of partition sda1) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1923134/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
