Yes, I do agree with the fact that is is possible a simple and rather specific issue for my instance, that could be easily solved by someone knowledgable if they were give 10 minutes on my computer. You can download the file 'disk_2' to see how the guided partioning partioned my harddrive (its around 4.5MB). Yes, I am going for an UEFI install, and I went through the very few existent settings in my BIOS and couldnt seem to find anything 'familiar' that probably needs to be changed. As it is not my main computer, and the need for fix is not that vital, I havent spent too much time on it. Although I have tried different solutions (including one were I tried to install GRUB after using a live session), but I never went super deep into something. I thought I could ask around online, and if that does not work I might try to find some knowledgable friend or family that could help me out.Deb-fan wrote:Being able to find/google a specific error is always good stuff. Getting the feeling it's just something simple and/or silly being overlooked. Doesn't sound like you're-OP all that familiar with partitioning, though am not downloading mb's of files to see something like the layout on someone's hard drive. You're going for uefi/gpt install ? You don't have CSM thing enabled in system uefi or bios, you do have an Esp/EFI partition as the first partition on target drive and it's formatted fat32 ? Really would've helped giving folks a simple image of partitioning layout though.
Can always re-install grub after completing an install cause gnu/nix is awesome-sauce. Couple of best methods, a cool tiny util called supergrubdisk2 thing can detect and boot from disk tons of OS's in situations like bootloader issues and the big daddy, chroot from live session which can help fix all manner of borkage. Can easily install or repair bootloader problems with basic know-how and pokeage. Both are worth knowing about any way it goes. Still get the feeling it's something simple, lines of communication getting crossed here, leading to confusion etc.
I do apprecaite everyone trying to help me, and I apoligize for my lack of communication regarding my issue. :p
