The version of the installer is different, so the specific steps are different, but the overall process is the same as above.
The following is the manual process after "Executing 'grub-install dummy' failed.".
1. Go back to the upstream menu, and select "Execute a shell" to execute.
2. From the shell, execute the following command.
3. Go back to the upstream menu, and select "Continue without boot loader" to execute.Code:# cp -ar /cdrom/EFI/boot /target/boot/efi/EFI/
# chroot /target/
# update-grub
# exit
# exit
4. The rest of the process will be completed (password, etc. will be written back? for a few tens of seconds), you are done.
5. When the installation is finished, the system will automatically reboot and boot from the SD-Card you installed.
Good luck.
That worked. Re-booted and got to a Debian desktop.
In my case, I had to mount /var as /target/var due to my particular circumstances.
Your instructions are concise and accurate!
