[Bug 1155993] Re: GRUB error after Ubuntu Raring desktop amd64 install

[Rehan Khamaruddin]

Same issue with fresh install of release ISO (x64). I have a multiboot
system (several partitions). Grub was not installed. I always install
grub to the partition and selected that option during install. The
third-party bootloader I am using (BootIT Baremetal) reports the
partition is not bootable. Guess I'll have to try boot repair. I am a
bit reluctant to dink around with this for fear of hosing the mbr.

Title:
  GRUB error after Ubuntu Raring desktop amd64 install

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  OS: Ubuntu
  OS version: 13.04 (development branch), daily build (16 March 2013)
  Uname: Linux ubuntu 3.8.0-12-generic #21-Ubuntu SMP Thu Mar 7 19:08:49 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

  Steps to reproduce:
  - Install Ubuntu 13.04 (development branch)

  Expected behaviour:
  GRUB loads, allowing me to choose what OS to run.

  What happened instead:
  GRUB reported the following error:

  error: file '/boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod' not found

  Now I don't have any 32bit OS installed and these are my disk's partitions:
  /dev/sda1 - ntfs - 16.11GiB
  /dev/sda2 - ntfs - 100MiB
  /dev/sda3 - ntfs - 65.81GiB
  /dev/sda5 - swap - 7.45GiB
  /dev/sda6 - ext4 - 29.80GiB (Older Ubuntu Raring install)
  /dev/sda7 - ext4 - 46.56GiB (This Ubuntu Raring install - / )
  /dev/sda8 - ext4 - 132.25GiB (This Ubuntu Raring install - /home )
