=================== BUG #1215: LATEST MODIFICATIONS ================== http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailbug&bug_id=1215&group_id=68
Changes by: Anonymous user Date: 2002-Oct-08 00:06 ------------------ Additional Follow-up Comments ---------------------------- I experience similar on a Gentoo 1.4 system with Grub 0.90 installed on hda1, with the differance that my Type 82 (swap) and 83 (Linux) partitions was changed to 92 (unknown) and 93 (Amoeba), according to fdisk when booting from rescue CD, and my Extended partition was mashed into an unreadable/unmountable blob! I experimented with the 'map' and 'unhide/hide' directives to boot a preinstalled windows ME disk, not being the first disk. At firts this worked fine, but there was an annoyance as C: also show as D: but "unformated". First I thought this maybe was the Linux disk show up in Windows (as it have a tendency to stick its noze into the wrong place), but then realize it may came from the partitions have shared activated (I don't know as I never was able to get Grub up again). I can mount hda1 (hd0,0) and hda3 (hd0,2) and restore its data/files but the extended partition seam to be gone. At least I don't know how to restore data from it. What seam to have happen is that Grub (or something else) have added the value of 10 to all partitions, as hda4 has become "Type 15", where and how I don't know but assume change must have happen in the partirion table. Anyhow below is who my windows section in menu.lst looked when it happened, the ordinary Linux boot is pretty standard so I don't list it. title=Windows Disk 2 map (hd0) (hd1) map (hd1) (hd0) hide (hd0,0) hide (hd0,1) hide (hd0,2) hide (hd0,3) rootnoverify (hd1,0) chainloader +1 I don't know, but if this can help in any way to track down what this is about I'm glad. I can't sware it's Grub but pretty sure of it. =================== BUG #1215: FULL BUG SNAPSHOT =================== Submitted by: None Project: GNU GRUB Submitted on: 2002-Sep-14 18:41 Category: Booting Severity: Major Priority: None Bug Group: Software Error Resolution: None Assigned to: None Status: Open Release: 0.92 Reproducibility: Every Time Planned Release: Summary: error 17 Original Submission: After installing and configuring grub i just get an error 17 in stage 1.5 while booting. My system is reiserfes 3.6.25 on /dev/hdb2. Before upgrading to grub 0.92 i wasn't even able to configure grub, boot (hd1,1) and setup (hd0) gve me some erros (saying something like "unknown filesystem" and mount errors). This seems to be resolved in 0.92 but i'm still not able to boot, so i'm still using lilo (without any problems). Any Ideas?
