Hi Grub team,
I have connected a HDD to my optical drive port and find that Ubuntu can see
and mount that HDD. However, I'd like to be able to boot from it. If I do:
'ls'
-> shows hd0..
'insmod ata_pthru'
'insmod ntfs'
'ls'
-> shows ata0.. + additional partitions
set prefix=(ata0,1)/boot/grub
Problem is the sequence required to boot the Ubuntu or Windows partitions
off the shown ataxx partitions. I understand that Windows may need bios
INT10/INT13 services to boot, but Ubuntu does not. Can anyone list the
command sequence to boot Ubuntu off an ataxx ('insmod ata' or 'insmod
ata_pthru') non bios found IDE device?
I have also tried sbootmgr.dsk finding it sees the devices but upon
selecting the Ubuntu drive/partition off the optical port, it reboots the
system.
Any advice on how this can be done using grub2?
Nando
