I just tried to install grub, and removed grub2. zypper said grub legacy already installed, and removed grub2. After reboot, grub was not 'in command' forgot, did not think about to
What do you mean by "grub was not 'in command'"? It was not 'loaded'. grub2 uninstalled, and left a 'void'.. ;-) Just before the bootloader should show up...
install it. What command is needed to boot the kernel, or rather, install a bootloader? 122 install disc only has cli rescue, but is not usable at that point. 122 lacks the repair option/boot installed os at install point. Any suggestions as to how to get a complete system booted from zero, without having to install everything new??
Written from another box of course...
It's actually very easy if you can bring up a Grub prompt either via rescue boot or another installed version on a multiboot system:
http://orgs.man.ac.uk/documentation/grub/grub_3.html#SEC9 I'll check this first..
The specifics depend on your partitioning and whether 12.2 is the only installed OS.
There is no os visible, it is in the first stage, just behind the bios. And W7 is on it on chainloader+1
I usually use a Knoppix CD when I need to do this. It's how I set up Grub on a previously empty HD, before installing any OS, so that I can install via HTTP.
i can try knoppix, have one lying around here somewhere... -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
