Can't install v5.2

[Veet]

I had the same problem with LL5.2. Grub installation failed "the grub-efi-amd64-signed package failed to install into /target/. With out the grub boot loader The installed system will not boot".Connecting to the internet while installing solved the problem. I've been using Linux Lite since series 1 and never needed to be connected to the internet before to install the os. Sometimes I install an os where there is no internet access , then later when I have a connection I'll do the updates. Does anyone know what has changed?

Please post the screenshot in the Forums, no one is going to download a zip file from outside these walls.

I am using UEFI 64 bit.
I am not using Something Else option since I have never used it before!
I am using Erase disk and Install option.
Screenshots and syslog when installing using Erase disk and install are available at http://www.mediafire.com/file/8l435uev4zqsrnh/LinuxLitev5.2.zip/file

Thanks

@HemanthJabalpuri
I 2nd @Jerry - A screenshot/pic of your partition info would help.

I assume you using a 64bit UEFI supported system (5.x is UEFI/64bit only) 4.x can use BIOS or UEFI 64bit...
Being connected to the internet (WiFi or hardwire) is preferred (I've had similar if not).

You may need to a "Something Else" to ensure disks are created according (perhaps missing a /boot) Its a thought....

I can't be any clearer my friend. Here are my instructions one more time:

Where are you installing grub to? Please list your partition set up during install (clear photo is acceptable).
So, I need a picture of the partitioning section once you have set your options.

eg.



This is the picture I need.


Another question, are you connected to the internet during installation?

[HemanthJabalpuri]

I can't help you if you don't provide answers to what I have asked for. No need for logs.

Sorry if I overlooked something.
I am trying to install to the whole hard disk, so I didn't touched any partitions. Erase disk and install option. It means no dual booting.
Installation fails at last when installing grub, picture is at https://i.imgur.com/uqc4PhO.jpg

Thanks

I am not installing grub manually. Installation fails when installing at grub installation (attached picture in 1st post).
I am installing Linux Lite to whole hard disk.

Where can I find logs when installer crashes?

Thanks

I don't know what Ventoy is. You should use what we recommend on the Download page so as to minimize risk.

Thanks for the reply.

Sir, I will try but it seems like others also having the same issue without using Ventoy.

Live Environment is working fine but grub installation fails!

Where can I find logs when installer crashes? So that I can post it here.

Thanks

Edit:- Linux Lite is also in Ventoy support list

It looks like I have the same issue as others mentioned in
https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/installing-linux-lite/bootloader-fatal-error-grub-not-working/

https://www.linuxliteos.com/forums/installing-linux-lite/grub-error-cant-boot-windows/

But, I am installing it to the whole hard disk.
Other ubuntu based distro like Mint works fine when installing.

If someone help where to find logs when installer crashes, then I will post it here.

Thanks

I am using Ventoy to install it.
I can't use other writers because of I only have one USB and don't have rescue one.

I didn't install Linux Lite before.
I have disabled secure boot, enabled UEFI.
Grub is not installing. Screenshot is available at https://i.imgur.com/uqc4PhO.jpg
