RH71 upgrade to RH80 - GRUB/LILO Problems

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This is my first time posting to the list, so if by chance this is not 
where I should be posting this question, please point me in the right 
direction.

I have upgraded three machines from RedHat 7.1 to 8.0 in the last week, 
and in all three cases, LILO persists, even though I instruct the 
installer to upgrade the bootloader. Normally, I would just post that to 
bugzilla or whatever, but even when I manually install GRUB, it doesn't 
work.

I ran

grub-install /dev/hda

and manually created /boot/grub/grub.conf, then rebooted. All that appears 
is:

GRUB Read Error

I can boot into rescue mode and run /sbin/lilo, thus allowing me to get 
the system up and running, but I'd prefer to use GRUB. This happens on all 
three machines.

Has anyone else run into a similar problem? Do I need to do something to 
completely remove Lilo from the system before installing Grub? Any help is 
appreciated.

TIA
