[Bug 1061344] Re: grub-installer crashed after manual lvm install and a wrongly set device for grub to install to.

[Phillip Susi]

Given the age of this report, I think it is safe to assume that it is no
longer possible to investigate what happened, so I'm closing it.  If you
can reproduce the issue with a currently supported release, we can try
to investigate further.

Title:
  grub-installer crashed after manual lvm install and a wrongly set
  device for grub to install to.

Status in grub-installer package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I was close to completing an LVM install of Ubuntu 12.04 and had
  forgotten to point grub-install to /dev/sda. It reported failure to
  install to /dev/sdc (the device I booted the live install from) and
  asked me for further instructions. I pointed it to /dev/sda and
  continued. I was given the "installation complete... continue testing?
  or reboot?" when grub-install claimed to have crashed... I nervously
  wait till I've installed lvm2 in the chroot final instance and reboot
  to find if it has failed...
