[Bug 1236841] Re: Grub2 fails to install on Lenovo s205

[Phillip Susi]

Your installation medium contains a mix of files from both precise and
raring.  You will need to clean your USB stick before reusing it for
another distribution or release.

Title:
  Grub2 fails to install on Lenovo s205

Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Today I tried to install Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS on a Lenovo Ideapad s205
  in UEFI mode. This machine has some trouble with Ubuntu and EFI so I
  don't know if this is an Ubuntu bug or if this laptop decided to don't
  run Ubuntu anymore. Ubuntu 12.04 was once installed but suddenly the
  EFI implementation crashed and Grub wasn't loaded anymore instead the
  boot device selection menu showed up everytime and booting from the
  HDD was impossible (blank screen for 5 seconds or so).

  So I tried reinstalling Ubuntu and was confronted with this error.

  Hope this helps and you might have some further tips for me.

  
  Kind regards

  Paul
