Hi all, I have an ext2 partition and grub-legacy is unable to read any of the files on it. I created another partition and formatted it with ext3, and grub had no problems.
I understand that grub-legacy is in "bugfix only" mode right now. But this does seem like it could be a bug. I am using fedora core 11. It comes with kernel 2.6.30.9-96.fc11.i686.PAE. I have tried using the grub that ships with Fedora Core 11 and also the grub-0.97.tar.gz from upstream, but with the same results. Actually, there was one difference-- the grub from upstream was unable to read the ext3 partition either! Here's a sample of the error message: ================================= grub> root (hd0,1) Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83 grub> cat (hd0,1)/grub.conf Error 2: Bad file or directory type ================================= Anyway. I thought I would mention this. thanks, Colin McCabe _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
