Hi,
Im new here, however, i come up with a solution.
I'm pulling my hair on this problem and that's why I want to write a solution that I hope will be useful.
The original problem :
When i install(legacy no uefi) Kali Linux on my asus ux31a, the install process continued normally but at the grub installation this error appeared : grub-pc failed to install into /target/thin
When i reboot, i have no OS, nothing ...
Solution:
I boot on my live of kali, then i chroot on the disk system :
Code:
sudo mount /dev/sdaX /mnt
sudo mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev
sudo mount --bind /dev/pts /mnt/dev/pts
sudo mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys
sudo mount -t proc /proc /mnt/proc
sudo chroot /mnt /bin/bash
mount -a
I add the squeeze repository
Code:
vim /etc/apt/source.list
add this :
## Security updates
deb http://security.kali.org/kali-security kali/updates main contrib non-free
deb ftp://ftp.fr.debian.org/debian/ squeeze main contrib non-free
deb http://security.debian.org/ squeeze/updates main contrib non-free

save
And i install grub
Code:
apt-get install grub-pc
I choose the /dev/sda disk for the install and i update the grub running config file with :
in the hope that it may help you
