Hi all, I've been scanning the forums and haven't seen anyone else with this error (yay me for being unique! :D )
Anyways, I've been trying to dual-boot my Macbook pro (currently running leopard) with 8.04. I've followed the instructions here - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MacBookPro and I'm running into a problem
After install completes, I try to boot into Ubuntu and I get:
No bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key
I can power off and boot into OSX with no trouble, so I'm not really worried about that. I'm not really sure what I'm doing wrong here
Basic steps I've followed:
Used Bootcamp to split the drive (giving about 18gb to Ubuntu)
installed rEFIt
formatted dev/sda3 at Ext3
formatted 1gb extra as swap
(didn't get any warnings about FAT partitions)
under Advanced (right before installation) made this change: '(hd0)' to '(hd0,3)' . Click 'OK', and 'Install'.
Any help would be appreciated
