The problem isn't the drive, it's got to be the drivers or something stupid with grub. It will NOT mount by UUID. Period.

I had this issue back with F16/17 and could boot by specifying the device the old way, /dev/sda5 etc. I can mount the drive partitions from a LIVECD of any linux distro. What I want to know is what do I need to do to make GRUB2 work? So far, I'm not at all impressed with GRUB2. It's beyond ridiculous to have to edit a half-dozen files to change how a system boots. I am considering trying to get it to boot by Label, but the directions to do so are just asinine. > Don't top-post, s'il vous plaît. OK, to clarify whether this is a bootloader's problem, you should try with the EXTLINUX bootloader. /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf: ui menu.c32 menu title The EXTLINUX bootloader timeout 100 label Fedora (3.11.1-200.fc19.x86_64) 19 (Schrödinger’s Cat) kernel /vmlinuz-3.11.1-200.fc19.x86_64 append root=$(grep -w / /etc/fstab | awk '{print $1}') ro rd.dm=0 rd.luks=0 rd.lvm=0 rd.md=0 initrd /initramfs-3.11.1-200.fc19.x86_64.img $ su -c "yum install syslinux-extlinux" $ less /usr/share/doc/syslinux-$(rpm -qi syslinux | grep Version | awk '{print $3}')/extlinux.txt poma -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
