grub2 i386
hello, With an editor I did remove the entry console from grub.cfg on my floppy. Now I can boot grub2 from the floppy. So in the grub2 templates the entry console must be removed. regards. ___ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
grub2 i386
hello,
the next script solved my problem partially.
#!/bin/bash
#This will create a GRUB2 boot floppy that supports GPT system.
#Make sure you have updated /boot/grub completely to ensure proper
floppy creation
#last updated for grub2 1.95
grub-mkimage -d /boot/grub -v -o /boot/grub/core.img ls ext2 gpt pc
linux _linux boot chain configfile fshelp help
mke2fs /dev/fd0
mount -o loop -t ext2 /dev/fd0 /mnt/
mkdir -p /mnt/boot/grub
cp /boot/grub/boot.img /boot/grub/core.img /boot/grub/*.mod /mnt/boot/grub
cp -f /boot/grub/grub.cfg /mnt/boot/grub
grub-mkdevicemap -m /boot/grub/device.map
grub-setup -d /mnt/boot/grub -v -r '(fd0)' -m /boot/grub/device.map '(fd0)'
umount /mnt/
If I then boot from the floppy then the system hangs.
I have the following grub.cfg :

If I remove grub.cfg and I enter the commands manual then I can boot.
The Problem is in line 12 of grub.cfg which is automatically generated.
The commands terminal console seem not to be implemented yet.
or does my script is missing a required module ?
