How bad is this GRUB message

[yotama9]

I have just installed LMDE on my laptop and did the good old

Code: Select all

 sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

[GRUB was updated as well. At first I tried to do nothing but I was worned that no grub will be installed. This sounded bad to me so I selected to go back and then picked some partition. I'm not sure if I sellected the right partition. When that was done, I read on the terminal:

/usr/sbin/grub-setup: warn: Attempting to install GRUB to a partitionless disk or to a partition. This is a BAD idea..
/usr/sbin/grub-setup: warn: Embedding is not possible. GRUB can only be installed in this setup by using blocklists. However, blocklists are UNRELIABLE and their use is discouraged..
Installation finished. No error reported.

Am I safe to reboot?

yes, it is safe to reboot.

that message is just a warning. I have seen that for over 100 times, and each time i ignore them.
