_____ From: landon kelsey [mailto:landonmkel...@hotmail.com] Sent: Thursday, December 22, 2011 7:48 PM To: bug-grub@gnu.org; fredsils...@yahoo.com; landon kelsey Subject: grub 2 problems...please help (1) installed MS XP Prof works great...boots right up with no help.......SCSI 0 (2) installed Fedora 16 but cannot reach it took hours .......SCSI 1 attached is error_grub.txt with all attempts and results. I tried to delineate attempts with __________ to make it easier to read I've learned NEVER to install ANYTHING (XP included) with flash or ext HDs plugged in. Large Bold font is reqd for my bad eyesight In the F16 install, there is something confusing. One moves the target drive for install to the right page via ">>" This was SCSI 1 since XP Prof is on SCSI 0 There is a check box for "install bootloader" Why would anybody want to install the bootloader on SCSI 1 since it goes on SCSI 0. Remove the check and you go nowhere unless the check is there The following is backward.hd0 really has MS XP Professional I switched the entries and it did't work so I switched back (hd1) /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-35000000000000000 (hd0) /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SSEAGATE_ST336705LW_3DE04EJF000071424BKV
I have scsi 0 MS XP Prof scsi 1 Fedora 16 all other flash or external drives disconnected even during installing F16 XP Prof works great but I cannot reach F16 I am using liveuser to do all this I have no other rescue means ____________________________________________________________ [root@localhost grub2]# !28 grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg Generating grub.cfg ...
