Package: grub-pc-bin
Version: 1.99-27
Severity: important
File: /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/grub-install
Tags: d-i
Dear Maintainer,
Installing Wheezy RC1 x86 on ASUS DR-TLS/Dual PIII with SCSI disks, an USB
stick and a SATA HD: the installer detected the USB key as sda, the SATA HD
as sdb and the first SCSI disk as system disk as sdc. / and /boot and the
basic system were installed ok on sdc.
install-grub tried to write to the USB stick and left the PC without usable
system. Did not ask for the disk to write to.
Repeated installation with USB key and SATA HD, the expert install did not
allow for a shortcut. That fixed the problem.
install-grub should ask for the disk where to install.
