Thread: Cannot boot after fresh install of 12.10


hi,

did fresh install of 12.10 cannot boot now. tried boot-repair couple of time without success.

bios, tried booting both "ubuntu" , "wd ..." (my primary hdd) both give me black screen cursor.

current state of installation given boot-repair here: http://paste.ubuntu.com/1358166/

last time ran boot-repair installed grub install devices into:
/dev/sda
/dev/sdc

last output on command line:

code:
creating config file /etc/default/grub new version installation finished. no error reported. /usr/sbin/grub-bios-setup: warning: gpt partition label contains no bios boot partition; embedding won't possible. /usr/sbin/grub-bios-setup: warning: embedding not possible.  grub can  installed in setup using blocklists.  however,  blocklists unreliable , use discouraged.. installation finished. no error reported. generating grub.cfg ... found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-3.5.0-17-generic found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-3.5.0-17-generic done
anyone knows wrong? appreciated,
rintcius

it looks sdc has uefi install gpt partitioning? other drives mbr.

sdc ssd , system uefi?

want uefi/gpt way boot or old bios/mbr method?

if installing ubuntu ssd, can install in bios mode gpt partitioning have have small 1mb unformatted bios_grub partition. if uefi have have efi partition first , gpt partitioning.

gpt partitioning recommended ssds , required drives on 2tb.

unless re-arranging partitions lot, lvm not offer advantage & adds level of complexity. backups become more important.
