Public bug reported: Binary package hint: grub
Using GRUB (version 0.97-29ubuntu45) from Intrepid I coming across a reproducible problem with chainloading and UUID. I'm using a bootable CD using the stage2_eltorito from the GRUB package. I also have a USB drive with a bootable VFAT partition. Entering the commands below manually loads the partition on the USB without fault: root (hd0,1) chainloader +1 boot If I power cycle the computer and replace the 'root (hd0,1)' line with 'uuid=4935-c5b8' above the following is returned: Starting up ... Boot error Hitting the return key continues to load the partition on the USB without fault. Why does GRUB respond with "Boot error" using the UUID command instead of root? ** Affects: grub (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- UUID causes error when chainloading https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/313000 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
