Installation problem Bunsenlabs linux

Hi all,
I have used #crunchbang! Linux years ago when I was in university and I was very happy when I saw that Bunsenlabs exists!
Just....I have a problem whit the installation
I receive this error message:

"the GRUB-efi-amd64 package failed to install into /target/"

and I cannot start the new system.

I`ve tried to install Bunsenlabs on a Laptop that before has windows 10.
Windows is now complete gone.

Any suggestion?

Thank You very much in advance.

Pietro

Re: Installation problem Bunsenlabs linux

Could it be your machine has 32bit EFI, as in this thread?

If so, you could try installing the i386 version of BunsenLabs. (This would also give us some useful data on solving that above problem. )
(Depending on how much RAM you have, a 64bit install might not offer any performance gain anyway.)

Hi John, thank you!

"the GRUB-efi-amd64 package failed to install into /target/"

Pietro, I think you need to try to provide more information. What kind and model is your laptop, does the live session work as it should? From what kind of media are you installing?  Could it be something wrong with the iso... etc

Windows is now complete gone.

so are you attempting to dual boot with windows, or not?

No only Linux.

The Laptop is an Asus with 2 gb ram.

The live session work correctly and so the installation the only thing that I can´t install is GRUB.
