Dear all,
I'm running in a small problem which has been consistent in all
DVD images I've installed since Alpha (I thought I was the
culprit).
Here is what I do:
1. Download DVD iso image
2. Use livecd-iso-to-disk to copy to USB
3. Boot from USB to install on laptop
4. Select all default option except disk partitioning:
- custom
- I create 3 partitions: / & /home ext4 and swap
5. Install prompts from GRUB install which is /dev/sdb1 (USB) by
default
6. I change it to /dev/sda1 (which is the other options)
7. Validate and complete install "successfully"
=> Laptop doesn't boot (no error message)
In fact grub is installed on /dev/sdb1 no matter what I select
apparently and I then go to system restore to install grub on
/dev/sda1
So is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks.
Fred
Replying to myself. After reinstalling GRUB using chroot and
grub-install /dev/sda1
I get an error 15 which is supposed to be a grub-legacy error..
though the HDD is brand new (was just delivered today).
What could be the problem (forgot what I did last time I faced the
problem).
Thanks.
Fred
(finally) looked at grub.conf and it still had (hd1,0) instead of
(hd0,0).
Note that I also did the root (hd0,0) and setup (hd0) before.
Apparently didn't work neither.
Should I file a bug?
Fred
