My most recent attempt to install F17, used the following grub stanza:
title Felix17
find /felix17/vmlinuz
pause find /felix17/vmlinuz
kernel (hd0,2)/felix17/vmlinuz
repo=http://mirrors.us.kernel.org/fedora/development/17/i386/os noapic noacpi
nolapic
pause kernel
initrd (hd0,2)/felix17/initrd.img
pause initrd (hd0,2)/felix17/initrd.img
The kernel and initrd images come from
http://mirrors.us.kernel.org/fedora/development/17/i386/os/isolinux .
After the last pause, it reboots as if I had hit the reset button.
Seems the expected result of there being no /felix17/initrd.img or
/felix17/vmlinuz on the 3rd partition on the first BIOS HD. Do these in fact
exist? The find command should tell you where it found files by those names
in the following form:
(hd0,1)
(hd0,2)
(hd0,5)
It did, (hd0,2).
without any need for a pause command.
The pause commands are so I can tell how
far booting gets before it craps out on me.
'Tis annoying to watch what little I might
understand disappear before I can read it
or even tell where it came from.
Similar for the kernel command (and the initrd command):
[Linux-bzImage, setup=0x####, size=0x######]
If this was there, I didn't see it.
What is the significance? Google has not helped.
