Hey everyone! I'm new to the forums and new to Linux so please bear with me here.
I've been trying to install Gnome onto a 32gb Leef Supra USB 3.0 flash drive and also a 32gb San Disk USB 2.0 flash drive from a live USB.
But I'm having an issue with installing Gnome 14.04 that is preventing me from installing grub. I get the error 'grub-install /dev/sda failed' This is a fatal error message and then the installer crashes.
I'm running Windows 8.1 on an Alienware m17x with 32gb of ram
I'm using a Core i7-4900MQ CPU @ 2.8 GHz processor and running a 64-bit system.
I usually split 10-12gb for my / partition then about 18-22gb for my /home partition with a 2-4gb partition for swap space.
I also tried installing other distros like Mint and have the same issue each time.
If you need anymore information just let me know!
