I have multiple production machines that I support. They
are running Centos 5 with /boot and / on software RAID1 across 3 drives. When anaconda sets up the boot loader the machines work
fine. Great. We recently had /dev/sda fail on one of the machines. We replaced
the drive, rebuilt the partitions and tried to re-install grub using Root (hd0,0) Setup (hd0) Root (hd1,0) Setup (hd1) Root (hd2,0) Setup (hd2) Grub says it installs perfectly. However , when I reboot,
after we go though the grub menu the boot hangs after displaying the initrd information. If I boot off of a DVD that can then boot the harddisk, the
DVD boots, boots the grub menu from the disk, and then boots the HD correctly. I have not been able to manually set the bootloader to
work. We tried doing a centos upgrade to the same version of centos that we
are already running. I set it to update the bootloader. It runs though the
process and afterwards the bootloader works correctly again. What does anaconda do to install the bootloader? Do you use grub directly or write your own? Have you seen this before? Thank you. -- Andrew Lundgren |
