+<PRE>2012/7/29 Pedro Gs &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">simplew8 at gmail.com</A>&gt;:
+&gt;<i> Hi,
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Problems installing grub files and kernel files under /boot since i
+</I>&gt;<i> have followed the Coling instructions about moving to /usr, but i dont
+</I>&gt;<i> know if these problems are related to this or due to other changes in
+</I>&gt;<i> systemd.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Since linuxmint doesnt have an installed to install the distro in an
+</I>&gt;<i> encrypted LVM i have followed this howto
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=141&amp;t=71159">http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=141&amp;t=71159</A> and i have
+</I>&gt;<i> put linuxmint in an encrypted LVM and so far all went fine.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Some days ago i decided to replace Linuxmint by Ubuntu and i did
+</I>&gt;<i> followed the same procedure and again all was running fine.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> However today i have decided to replace Ubuntu 12.04 with Ubuntu
+</I>&gt;<i> 12.10 (quantal) and i have erased existent Ubuntu fs and i followed
+</I>&gt;<i> the same procedure, but after running:
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> ubuntu]# unsquashfs -f -d /mnt/lm/ casper/filesystem.squashfs
+</I>&gt;<i> Parallel unsquashfs: Using 4 processors
+</I>&gt;<i> 147918 inodes (153245 blocks) to write
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> [===================/
+</I>&gt;<i> ] 27438/153245 17% cd
+</I>&gt;<i> /mnt/lm/boot
+</I>&gt;<i> [===========================================================================================================|]
+</I>&gt;<i> 153245/153245 100%
+</I>&gt;<i> created 94187 files
+</I>&gt;<i> created 14237 directories
+</I>&gt;<i> created 53613 symlinks
+</I>&gt;<i> created 82 devices
+</I>&gt;<i> created 0 fifos
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> it did NOT install vmlinux ubuntu kernel file in /boot like it used to
+</I>&gt;<i> happen so far, and it also did not installed the grub files that used
+</I>&gt;<i> to install and isntead now i have this:
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> boot]# ls -ls *
+</I>&gt;<i> 824 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 843468 Jul 23 21:15 abi-3.5.0-6-generic

+</I>&gt;<i> grub:
+</I>&gt;<i> total 4
+</I>&gt;<i> 4 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 699 Jul 24 13:04 gfxblacklist.txt
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> as we can see theres no grub files inside /boot/grub and also theres
+</I>&gt;<i> no initrd and vmlinux files to allow to boot into Ubuntu.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> I even tested by installing again the Ubuntu release that was
+</I>&gt;<i> successfully installed (before following Coling instructions about
+</I>&gt;<i> moving to /usr) and now it happened exactly the same thing, no
+</I>&gt;<i> vmlinux, initrc and no grub files.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Could anyone please clarify, or Colin ;) why now when running
+</I>&gt;<i> &quot;unsquashfs -f -d /mnt/lm/ casper/filesystem.squashfs&quot; it doesnt
+</I>&gt;<i> install kernel and grub files needed to boot the distro?
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> PS: i need to use this procedure even with Ubuntu since i want to have
+</I>&gt;<i> in an encrypted LVM with cypher aes-xts* because Ubuntu alternate CD
+</I>&gt;<i> installer uses an older cypher.
+</I>&gt;<i> for linuxmint i really have no other option that use this
+</I>&gt;<i> since it doesnt have an installer that allows to install the distro in
+</I>&gt;<i> an encrypted partition (it only allow to encrypt home folder)
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> TIA
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> regards,
+</I>&gt;<i> Pedro
+</I>
+Please ignore this thread, this is ubuntu specific and i didnt follow
+all needed steps
