https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=227324 Summary: GRUB problems during install Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: greg.riedesel@wwu.edu QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Hardware is an ASUS P5B-Deluxe, Intel Core2 Duo, in x86-64 mode. Previous to this installation attempt I had openSUSE 10.2 RC1 successfully installed to the unit. On attempting to install 10.2 FINAL I had major problems during the install, specifically with the GRUB portion. 1st error (from memory, I can't reproduce this one anymore. Too much troubleshooting): ----------------------- Error occured while installing GRUB. grub> setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 (hd0)(hd2,2) Error 23: [unrememered text] ----------------------- This was done during an "update existing installation" installation. After reattempting an install with a reformat instead and then New Installation, I'm now getting this: 2nd error: ----------------------- Error occured while installing GRUB. grub> setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 (hd2,2)(hd2,2) Error 21: selected disk does not exist grub> setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 (hd0)(hd2,2) Error 21: selected disk does not exist grub> quit ----------------------- I have three drives in my system: /dev/sda [all windows, all NTFS] /dev/sdb sdb1 [NTFS] /dev/sdc sdc1 [ext2: source files, usually mounted on /source] sdc2 [SWAP] sdc3 [ext3: ROOT] sdc4 [Extended] sdc5 [Xen partition for DomU guest] Perhaps of note, installation did NOT see the CD-Rom drive after it booted from it. Copying the installation tree to /dev/sdc1 allowed me to install. The CD-Rom is connected to a J-Micron controller. Just to repeat, this system was pretty stable with the RC1 codebase. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
