retitle 436943 "error: out of partition" when trying to enter normal mode submitter 436943 Alex Malinovich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> thanks
I hate it when this happens but, this bug has become a confusing mess! Three different people reported breakage, but it isn't necessarily the same one. When in doubt, it is better if you file a separate bug and let the maintainer merge if appropiate. There are dozens of reasons why you could get dumped into rescue mode. GRUB didn't properly report the reason you get into rescue mode untill very recently. Alex was the first of you three to get this message, so I'll retitle the bug and from now on it only applies to the error he reported. Hugo and Adam, if you can still reproduce this, try the latest version, which will tell you the reason it can't get to normal mode. But *still* file a separate bug. "out of partition" is too generic to assume it is the same problem for all of you.

Can you identify the problem if you do: set debug=all ls (hd0,1)/boot ? -- Robert Millan <GPLv2> I know my rights; I want my phone call! <DRM> What use is a phone call… if you are unable to speak?
