Description Muhammad Tailounie 2014-05-05 12:06:10 CEST
The "drakboot" program crashed. Drakbug-16.26.8 caught it.

I was trying to install GRUB2 as my default bootloader

grub2-install failed: /usr/sbin/grub2-bios-setup: warning: this GPT partition label contains no BIOS Boot Partition; embedding won't be possible.
/usr/sbin/grub2-bios-setup: warning: Embedding is not possible.  GRUB can only be installed in this setup by using blocklists.  However, blocklists are UNRELIABLE and their use is discouraged..
/usr/sbin/grub2-bios-setup: error: will not proceed with blocklists.
