openSUSE Forums: 12.3 RC1 Grub installation fails

openSUSE Forums openSUSE Forums

12.3 RC1 Grub installation fails Feb 7th 2013, 13:42 I have just tried to all 12.3 RC1 (openSUSE-12.3-KDE-LiveCD-Build0024-x86_64.iso) on an HP Pavilion dm1-3105. This is a system with an AMD E-350 cpu and ATI Radeon HD 6310 graphic processor When I try a "standard" Grub 2 installation, without changing anything, it fails with: Error occurred while installing GRUB2. /usr/sbin/grub2/bios-setup: warning: Attempting to install GRUB to a partitionless disk or to a partition. /usr/sbin/grub2/bios-setup: error: embedding is not possible, but this is required for RAID and LVM install. When I change the Boot Options to select (Legacy) Grub, it fails with: Error occurred while Installing GRUB sh: /usr/sbin/grub: No such file or directory This is certainly not a RAID or LVM installation. I have installed on various other systems, including AMD/ATI systems, without problem. I have installed openSuSE 12.2 on this system without problem. Any suggestions would be very much appreciated. Thanks, jw
