Re: [trinity-users] Exe GNU/Linux, Jessie, no-systemd

hope i am not off topic, no systemd comments here, just a couple of comments 
on exe-jessv-2014109,110 and 112. I tried to install them in a vbox vm on a 
wheezy-tde13.5.13.2 host, vbox ver. 4.3.18 r96516. In all instances grub 
failed to install and grub rescue would only allow the ls and set commands to 
be executed, all other commands i tried  (cat, linux etc) produced the 
error "no such command". Trying "do not install grub" also failed with the 
message "grub missing". Any hints / ideas?
thanks in advance,
dimitris (newbie in list)
