I was installing debian from the 7.4 64-bit xfce installer and chose not to setup my internet settings, but during the grub bootloader installation part, I got the following error "The 'grub-pc' package failed to install into /target/. Without the GRUB boot loader, the installed system will not boot." There is already a report on this and it stated that it was fixed < https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=672689 >. I was installing from a 4gb usb.
Hi Jay, Jay Philips <philipz85@hotmail.com> (2014-03-05): any chance you could switch to the 4th console to see if there are more accurate messages explaining what went wrong when installing grub? Maybe you suffered from the first item documented in errata[1] and grub failed to get set up on the installation medium? 1. https://www.debian.org/releases/wheezy/debian-installer/index.html#errata Mraw, KiBi.
Hi KiBi, I would be glad to supply more information, but dont know what the 4th console is. I searched online for the phrase but couldnt find any explanation of it. I checked the errata[1] as you suggested, but unfortunately it doesnt relate to me as grub isnt getting installed on my usb and i never get the message "Install the GRUB boot loader to the master boot record?". When i reach the 'Install the GRUB boot loader on a hard disk' page, it directly gives me the error. When i attempted to install lilo instead, i would like to put it, it gave me the message "Running "/sbin/lilo" failed with the error code "127". It is mentioned in errata, that "it should be possible to recover using the rescue mode of the installer". where can i find this rescue mode in the installer? Jay Philips
You can switch console by pressing Alt+Number of console, for example to switch to console 4: ALT+4 I searched online for the phrase but couldnt find any On the installer boot screen choose "advanced options" then "Rescue mode".
Alt+F4 you're right
Unless something has changed, at least in the past it had to be left alt, and F4, but maybe there are new shortcuts I don't know about.
I had tried Alt+F4 as i thought that might be the case, but there was no information presented at the console. Unfortunately, i dont see an 'advanced options' option in the boot screen. Is it because i'm using unetbootin that this option is not there. I had tried using dd to put the iso on the usb, but had no luck and couldnt find enough complete information to do it that way. Jay Philips
Well i have good news and bad news. The good news is that i got the installation to work and grub installed. The bad news is that it will not install grub from the live xfce session, it will only install grub from the boot menu 'install' option. I noticed that Alt+F4 does give useful stuff in the boot menu 'install' but its not there in the live session install. I checked the boot menu under 'advanced options' there is only 'hardware detection tool' and 'memory diagnostic', no 'rescue mode'. As i was trying to figure out this whole grub installation problem, i was tweeting my thoughts about problems i found with debian's installer. Please do have a look over them when you get a chance < https://twitter.com/jphilipz >. Jay Philips
