Dear Maintener,

I found a big bug in debian-Installer on a "BIOS Legacy" computer
When trying to force grub installation in other device than primary disk, in
graphical mode the menu lets the user choose the device:
/dev/sda
/dev/sdb
...
But when we choose one of a device debian-Installer don't install GRUB WITHOUT
ERROR MESSAGE.

In fact we must enter the device with the keyboard taping "/dev/sda"... to
contourn the bug.

Excuse-me for my english language. I'm a french guy

Hi François,

François POLASTRON <fpolastron@free.fr> (2016-02-19):

This seems very strange to me. Any chance you have access to this computer
anyway, and can share the installer logs containing the failed attempt?
(/var/log/installer/syslog notably.)

(contourner = to work around)

Don't worry, we've seen worse messages. ;)

Mraw,
KiBi.
