hello,
i'm having slow , messy boot in hp compaq dc7700 small form factor freshly installed ubuntu 12.04 operating system.

have tried boot-repair no success. have installed grub customizer, don't know it.
grub updated , have both 3.2.0-23 , 3.2.0-24 kernels.

think problem in related flexnet. don't know flexnet is, when ran

sudo grub-install /dev/sda

outcome was:
code:
dispositivo inicio    comienzo      fin      bloques  id  sistema  /dev/sda1   *        2048   152158207    76078080   83  linux  /dev/sda2       152160254   156301311     2070529    5  extendida  /dev/sda5       152160256   156301311     2070528   82  linux swap / solaris  pablo@pablo-hp-compaq-dc7700-small-form-factor:~$ sudo grub-install /dev/sda  /usr/sbin/grub-setup: aviso: sector 33 in use flexnet; avoiding it.  software may cause boot or other problems in future.  please ask authors not store data in boot track.  installation finished. no error reported.
