Description Dave Hodgins 2013-01-22 22:20:45 CET
The "draklive-install" program crashed. Drakbug-15.19 caught it.

Install using kde live cd, selected grub2 on mbr.  Forget to select seperate /boot with encrypted / filesystem.

grub2-install failed: Path `/boot/grub2' is not readable by GRUB on boot. Installation is impossible. Aborting.

Haven't you be warned about that by the installer?

Comment 3 Dave Hodgins 2013-03-08 23:12:13 CET
I'm pretty sure it didn't warn that / was encrypted with no /boot.

I'll retest later today to confirm.

Seems to be an eyesight problem. :-)
