[Bug 999948] Re: Ubuntu fails to account for separate boot partition

[Patrick Santos]

I cannot reproduce this issue on my machines. May you post the hardware
configuration of both machines, and the partitioning scheme + where you
installed the bootloader? Are you multi-booting with more than one OS on
the same computer?

I have two Ubuntu 12.04 x64 machines with separate /boot partitions, one
installed through LiveCD and one installed through Alternate install CD,
and they are both working fine.

Title:
  Ubuntu fails to account for separate boot partition

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  In Installing Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop, my system has a separate boot
  partition /boot on the same drive.   When installing Ubuntu 12.04,
  Grub2 does not seem to account for that and when the installation is
  finished and you reboot looking to get into Ubuntu 12.04 desktop,
  grub2 generates an error 15 and halts.

  What I have tried:

  (I have tried this on two separate machines so I know it is machine
  independent)

  Please note:

  (Grub1 was installed previously on these machines but another machine
  had grub1 AND no /boot partition and it worked so I Know it has
  nothing to do with Grub1)

  (As stated already, both machines had a separate /boot partition so I
  can reproduce the error)

  (as stated:)

  I tried the install on a third machine with just a / partition and it
  worked perfectly so I know having grub1 already installed does not
  affect this situation.
