Hello,
I have currently a dual boot with windows and debian 10.
I have to migrate from debian 10 to debian 12, so I tried to install debian-12.8.0-amd64-netinst.iso from on a brand new partition. (I did not dare upgrade directly from debian 10, due to several very bad experiences on ubuntu)
But the installation of debian 12 crashed with following error: (I translate here from french):
Impossible to install the selected kernel
An error occurred while trying to install the kernel to the target system.
Package of the kernel: linux-image-amd64.
Please look at the file /var/log/syslog or the fourth virtual console to obtain more precisions.
Trying to go further in the installation, the grub installation also failed, but I think it is because of the previous incomplete installation.
The installer created the usual linux folders under the "/" partition, and in the /home partition. I think this part is OK.
The boot folder also seems correct to me, but I cannot boot on it. No grub can direct me to debian 12.
The only syslog file that I found is in var/log/installer. here are some messages:
and also
The final result is that I cannot boot into debian 12, So I am lucky that I am able to boot into debian 10 to find information with sudo from the distant partitions.
Can someone please give me a hint of what I could do? Do I have to file a bug? (I tried to do it with but I am too stupid to understand how to do it. Also with the application "reportbug", I failed to send anything...)
Thank you very much for any help.
