1. Upgraded from Jaunty, continued using 'old' GRUB for a couple of days 2. Needed GRUB2 for remastersys, so upgraded to grub-pc, current version is 1.97~beta4-1ubuntu4 3. menuitem for both memtest options failed. If i add a line 'set root=(hdX,Y) at the beginning of the menuitem using the 'e' option, it works, where X and Y refer to my /boot partition
Even though it is _not_ recommended, I added the 'set root...' to the start of each memtest stanza in boot.cfg memtest now works, though I imagine my changes will disappear next GRUB update. -- cannot start memtest86+ when /boot is a separate partition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/450351 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
