[Bug 331596] New: error loading operating system
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=331596 Summary: error loading operating system Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: 64bit OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: sgt-d@sodpit.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- i installed 10.3 final and used it for 2 days without any problems. i manually added titles for windows in grub's menu.lst file and wanted to test them, so i rebooted. i had already played with some of the windows titles, and rebooting wasn't a problem. so i was just adjusting them. immediately after bios posts i get this error: error loading operating system the dvd "repair installation" fails to run, so i can't use that. the rescue system, not sure how to use it really. if i run "repair installation" eventually it fails, after which i can tell it to run and installation and then finally i can pick sata2 and 10.3 final and everything runs normally. once i got in i tried yast -> system -> bootloader... on the "boot loader installation" tab i didn't change anything, i just clicked "finish" hoping it would rewrite anything that was missing... GNU GRUB version 0.97 (640K lower / 3072K upper memory) [ Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists the possible completions of a device/filename. ] grub> setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 (/dev/sdd2,1) (/dev/sdd2,1) Error 23: Error while parsing number grub> quit notes... during installation only i had 2 ide cd drives connected and 1 sata. after installation i reconnected 1 additional sata and 2 ide's, then i made sure that bios was using the 10.3 final drive as the primary boot drive - again, this worked fine for 2 days.
