In my f8 grub.conf I have the following lines (only relevant ones listed):
title Fedora (2.6.23.15-137.fc8)
root (hd0,4)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.23.15-137.fc8 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.23.15-137.fc8.img
title F9 Rawhide
root (hd0,7)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.25-0.69.rc3.git1.fc9 ro root=LABEL=/1 rhgb quiet
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.25-0.69.rc3.git1.fc9.img
The first set allow me to boot directly into F8... the second set I thought would
boot into rawhide - but won't. I also tried changing the LABEL=/1 into
LABEL=/ with the same effect.
The /boot directory in the rawhide partition contains:
[root@lapmike1 ~]# ls /mnt/tmp/boot/
total 5700
88 config-2.6.25-0.69.rc3.git1.fc9 2616 initrd-2.6.25-0.69.rc3.git1.fc9.img
4 efi/ 892 System.map-2.6.25-0.69.rc3.git1.fc9
4 grub/ 2096 vmlinuz-2.6.25-0.69.rc3.git1.fc9
Also the /boot/grub directory in the rawhide partition contains only:
[root@lapmike1 ~]# ls /mnt/tmp/boot/grub/
total 8
8 splash.xpm.gz
Should I have stage1 and stage2 files etc in this directory?
Can you suggest what I may be able to do to get rawhide in this situation to
boot?
Am I missing some files in /boot/grub?
Thanks
