These Aren't Roasted! Join Date Sep 2008 Beans 128 Unable to install Grub2 On my laptop, I was forced to reinstall Windows Vista, and then "reduce" the partition size to create an empty partition to install Ubuntu. I had to uninstall a "recovery" partition to free up even more space, once I was sure Vista was properly installed. I have recovery DVDs in case. Anyway, I then proceeded to install from my Ubuntu DVD, but it failed to install Grub. I complete the install and am trying to install Grub manually to allow a dual boot. I boot from the live CD, and do the following after mounting the Ubuntu partition from Places: Code: ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ mount | tail -1 /dev/sda5 on /media/a6a3e0fd-ff99-4051-89f1-7cd5295b3360 type ext4 (rw,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks) and....

Now I can't boot Ubuntu, so I want to reinstall grub. I'm getting this error: grub-install --boot-directory=/media/cab64688-2d97-4bbd-9f32-7bc0badb40a8/boot /dev/sdb rm: cannot remove `/media/cab64688-2d97-4bbd-9f32-7bc0badb40a8/boot/grub/915resolution.mod': Read-only file system So, the problem is that my existing Ubuntu partition is mounted read only. When I try: sudo mount /dev/sdb7 /media/ubuntu_mpt mount: block device /dev/sdb7 is write-protected, mounting read-only So I failed to install grub since I'm in read only mode. Any ideas? EDIT: After apt-get install grub, I repeated the process and got: Probing devices to guess BIOS drives. This may take a long time.
