    Re: Install issues 12.04

    I think your original issue of error 55 is from grub legacy in sda. Grub legacy uses error codes, I had not seen codes over 20 something so did not recognize it right away.

    If you can boot from sdb does not system work ok?

    You do have 3 Windows & 3 Ubuntu's. It looks like you installed Windows to sdb but had booting set from sda, so Windows 7 put its boot files in sda1. Then somewhere you installed grub legacy to the MBR of sda.

    I might put a Windows boot loader in sda and have grub2 for which every Ubuntu you want to boot in sdb and set BIOS to boot from sdb. Then if an issue you might be able to boot from sda.

    Re: Install issues 12.04

    Yes the system works great from sdb, I have to hold down the esc key everytime I boot however. With windows thats more than weekly.
    I can't see how the sata mode could change from acpi to raid. If I were in a raid system would I not be able to see the contents of the 250 GB mirror?
    I am surmising that the raid mode is just a set of protocols and really only is raid setting is only a building block of the software raid.
    When I change back to acpi and esc to the boot menu it gives the drives in a list not the raid 0 and raid 1 listing. Yes I know I have win 7 on sdb but I dont think its mbr is on sda as it was totally a separate install.
    I think the legacy grub may have been installed from an older version of ubuntu like 6.0 that was upgraded thru a couple versions.
    I do not know how to
    might put a Windows boot loader in sda and have grub2 for which every Ubuntu you want to boot in sdb and set BIOS to boot from sdb. Then if an issue you might be able to boot from sda.
    Do you think it would be worth a shot to do the recommended fixes from boot repair?
    Basically the changes to the system was the clean install of ubuntu 12.04 directed to the old 10.014 partition. I would like to not have to go to bios or boot menu every startup.
    Again I dont think an install would change a sata mode setting but then again what a long strange road its been.

    Re: Install issues 12.04

    Boot-Repair seems to offer several choices. Install grub to all MBR, or Windows to one.

    I would install grub to sdb and install Windows (or syslinux which is a Windows like boot loader) to sda. Then set BIOS to boot from sdb.

    What setting is BIOS in for drive access? RAID, IDE, Large or LBA or AHCI? Best not to use RAID nor IDE.

    So use boot repair to set the grub to sdb and install the windows to sda?Why have the o/s on one drive and the bootloader on the smaller sda drive? I think my bios just boots from drive [name] not from what the o/s call them.In order to install the windows boot mess I think I would have to reinstall or repair install windows? or use boot repair...

    Its the RAID setting in BIOS could an ubuntu install have selected that? The original 250 gb drive that came with the hp is a sata drive.

    Or maybe I just need to remove some meta data per presence thread.

    Re: Install issues 12.04

    If you used the RAID at all you should remove the RAID meta-data. I do not think running those commands if you do not have RAID change anything else.

    I always suggest with multiple drives to install different operating systems on each drive and have that systems boot loader on the same drive. Then when, not if, one drive fails you can still change boot order to boot the other drive. And since grub allows you to boot multiple installs change BIOS to boot with grub as the default.

    Operating system installs do not change BIOS settings. A BIOS update will change settings back to default. I lost some settings so last time I updated BIOS I used Camera to take screenshots of every screen.

    Some info on how BIOS & Windows boot. Grub does not use PBR or partition boot sector.

    What a gem what a gem what a gem Happy Thanksgiving. I did apply the default repairs from boot repair it did say the mbr was quite far from sda where the new install lives.

    User choice: Is sdb (1000GB) a removable disk? no
    =================== Final advice in case of recommended repair
    Please do not forget to make your BIOS boot on sdb (1000GB) disk!
    
    The boot files of [The OS now in use - Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS] are far from the start of the disk. Your BIOS may not detect them. You may want to retry after creating a /boot partition (EXT4, >200MB, start of the disk). This can be performed via tools such as gParted. Then select this partition via the [Separate /boot partition:] option of [Boot Repair]. (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootPartition)
    
    =================== Default settings
    Recommended-Repair
    This setting would reinstall the grub2 of sdb7 into the MBRs of all disks (except USB without OS).
    Additional repair would be performed: unhide-bootmenu-10s   fix-windows-boot
    
    =================== Settings chosen by the user
    Boot-Info
    This setting will not act on the MBR.

    Does it boot ok?
    You seem to have several installs, 3 Windows & 3 Ubuntu.

    With the link to pastebin, you did not need to post the BootInfo report. But if you post long formated info please use code tags. Hightlight like copy and click on # in edit panel above your post.

    Re: Install issues 12.04

    Sorry for the long post just looking to see if I need any further modification to grub. I think both the grub 2 and the windows 7 bootloader are on the terabyte drive sdb if thats what boot repair shows. Anyway the link to multibooters was fantastic.

    Re: Install issues 12.04

    It is booting fine. I believe all my old Ubuntu versions have been formatted so the only one I am booting is partition 7 on sdb not the other 12.04 partition 4 on sda. I think we discussed what I want is grub 2 on sda and windows boot mgr on sdb so that if a drive fails i just change the boot order. I think I made a mistake partitioning the terabyte drive for both Ubuntu by using the installers partitioner to use unused space there.
    The other thing I need to do is remove the metadata for both drives and switch to AHCI instead of the raid setting.
    In my view I have 2 Linux o/s and 3 windows, window7, xp and a recovery partition?
    Old fred this whole experience is showing me how much more robust Linux is compared to windows.
