ubuntu 9.04, ext4 and grub
April 25th, 2009
Guess what! If you install Ubuntu 9.04 with /boot on an ext4 partition and you previously had grub installed into the MBR (and were using ext3), your system won’t boot! You need to boot the live cd and manually run grub-install.
# /dev/sdc2 has /boot on it, amongst other things sudo mount /dev/sdc2 /mnt sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sdc2
