Stuck at grub rescue screen #747

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install from USB
2. Reboot
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected android os to come up, grub rescue screen comes up instead

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

tried 4.0 RC1 and 3.2 RC2.  Formatted disk in eepc900 both times.  OS appears 
to install just fine, but when I reboot system will not come up.  If I do not 
reboot and select 'start andriod os' after install, android comes up fine.  
Fails to reboot

Please provide any additional information below.

I just tried fat32.  Now I get "Non system disk - Press any key to reboot"  
Doesn't look like grub is being installed appropriately.

hmm format the drive again in windows, then try to install one more time. When 
I whose trying to install android on the pendrive for the first time it didn't 
work. If this will not work i don't have a clue

Didn't work.  I also tried to install to a freshly formatted USB stick, 
thinking that perhaps the install didn't like the solid-state drive in the 
eepc.  That had the same effect.  It couldn't find anything to boot from.

I finally got it to work, with a lot of screwing around.  I ended up installing 
it in a virtual box session and verifying that it would reboot correctly.  Then 
using a live CD I made an image of the virtual disk with dd, xfered it to the 
eepc and restored it.  Rebooted and all worked fine.  I'm pointing the finger 
at the install not liking the solid state drive in the eepc (16 gb "hard 
drive").
