Hello! I have a 16GB pendrive, with two ext4 partitions. I plan to run Knoppix from the flashdrive. My pendrive in one computer is /dev/sdb I am trying grub-install /dev/sdb The device is mounted in /media/sdb1 and /media/sdb2 I am getting a grub-probe error.
I read the following section: ================================================== If you want GRUB to put images under a directory other than /boot, you need to specify the option --boot-directory. The typical usage is that you create a GRUB boot floppy with a filesystem. Here is an example: # mke2fs /dev/fd0 # mount -t ext2 /dev/fd0 /mnt # mkdir /mnt/boot # grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt/boot /dev/fd0 # umount /mnt ================================================== In my other computer the drive is read as /media/sdc1 and sdc2 when I write: grub-install /dev/sdc or : grub-install /dev/sdc1 I get: ============================================ grub-install /dev/sdc grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?). grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for /boot/ (is /dev mounted?). Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device ============================================ root@Microknoppix:/home/knoppix# grub-install /dev/sdc1 grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?). grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for /boot/ (is /dev mounted?). Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device. ============================================= _______________________________________________ Help-grub mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-grub
