I posted an issue I was having booting a new install of F19 on my Samsung netbook. It seems that my system cannot find the disks by UUID for some reason. The way I fixed this before was to edit grub to use the device name /dev/sda5 (which
is /boot) instead of UUID. Some people replied that I needed to make sure that my system UUID matched what grub was trying to use. I've attached a copy of the UUIDs (from blkid) and from /boot/grub2/grub.cfg. I did another fresh install of F19, reformatted
the partitions again and still had the same problem. So I booted back into my LiveUSB image and pulled the data from blkid and and grub.cfg. So, what do I do now?
I noticed in the boot params there's a '--fs-uuid' switch, can I remove that and specify /dev/sda5 instead? I know so little about the newest boot process that I'm flailing here. Help! Thanks. Mark |
