Please, attach YaST logs. http://www.opensuse.org/index.php/Bug_Reporting_FAQ#YaST Thanks The logs should be sifficient (they also contain grub.conf). Torsten, any idea about error 22 (duplicate of any known bug)? Nope, Jiri, can't recall anything like this. Have a close look at the partition table, once Peter provides it. I assume there's something fishy about it, if it's not really broken somehow. We should also keep in mind the letters "GPT", just in case. Created attachment 48673 [details]
YaST2 log files
This yast log file is from a fresh install. The grub error 22 appeared once
again.
Thanks for adding the info - please next time use the button below ("This
comment provides the needed information.") so that it's not anymore in state
NEEDINFO and the engineer can start working on it...
Hmm, the GRUB installation looks fine. Torsten, any idea whjat could be wrong? grub> setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 (hd0) (hd1,7) Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... yes Checking if "/boot/grub/stage2" exists... yes Checking if "/boot/grub/reiserfs_stage1_5" exists... yes Running "embed /boot/grub/reiserfs_stage1_5 (hd0)"... 18 sectors are embedded. succeeded Running "install --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 /boot/grub/stage1 d (hd0) (hd0) 1+18 p (hd1,7)/boot/grub/stage2 /boot/grub/menu.lst"... succeeded Done. I guess /dev/hdb had invalid C/H/S settings when the partitions were created. Why is the boot partition not primary? BTW, giving the whole first disk to a wannabe-OS that doesn't know of any other systems is asking for trouble IMNSHO, especially when there's so much disk space in the system there should be better ways. Those yast logs are pretty unreadable; is there a way to get "fdisk -lu" output somehow? And device.map? It's probably in there somewhere, but totally unreadable outside yast maintainers :-( I would check that /dev/hdb corresponds to BIOS device 0x81, if this was intended, and further that /sys/firmware/edd/int13_dev80/legacy_* match the fdisk / parted settings. BTW, the lilo.conf that made it boot could be of interest, but not as much as any of the above. Don't understand the 1st paragraph... The detected device map was (according to the log) $["/dev/fd0":"(fd0)", "/dev/hda":"(hd0)", "/dev/hdb":"(hd1)", "/dev/hde":"(hd2)", "/dev/hdf":"(hd3)", "/dev/hdg":"(hd4)"]. This seems to be correct (provided it is intended that BIOS boots /dev/hda). Torsten, can I grab for you any other information from the log? Changing needinfo to reporter to provide the rest... Right. output from `fdisk -l` and `fdisk -lu' would be nice, alternatively dumps of the 2 MBRs. As well as the contents of /sys/firmware/edd/int13_dev8?/legacy_* No info provided after 2 weeks -- assuming fixed. |
I was unable to successfully install the Grub boot loader into my mbr. I tried many times without success. I also tried to do this on both Kanotix and Libranet 3.0, both which use grub, and the same error occurred. My AMD64 system is brand new. I used Libranet and installed Lilo-config, and was able to load Lilo with no problem. If you need I could send you the grub.conf file.
