Hello,
I've made another run and this, using this document guide:
http://code.google.com/p/pentoo/wiki/UEFI#UEFI_pentoo-installer_guide_for_UEFI_and_GPT
it all seem to be fine; except grub 2 cannot find the kernel.
The GPT is read fine by grub2. But, grub 2 cannot find
the kernel, explicitly the error messages from grub2:
error : file '/boot/kernel-genkernel-x86_64-3.3.9-pentoo' not found.
error: you need to load the kernel first
Here is the fstab:
UUID="EFA3-8415" /boot/efi vfat default 0 1
#sda2
UUID="cf76566e-bf4e-4dee-ab9d-6fc2bcdd5b1b" /boot ext2 defaults 0 1
#sda3
UUID="0ef33e5a-7869-418e-86be-1ef5e16b4495" none swap sw 0 0
#sda4
UUID="fc8efde7-359e-41b1-94b0-8a9a868bdf24" / ext4 defaults 0 0
shm /dev/shm tmpfs nodev,nosuid,noexec 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom audo noauto,ro 0 0
If you look at the table, which I followed, the names are in all caps, but
I used lowercase; could this be the problem?
The table from the aforementioned doc:
Select "gpt" as Partition Table
Create the following partitions:
# FS Size mount point name
/dev/sda1 vfat 256M /boot/efi UEFI
/dev/sda2 ext2 64M /boot BOOT
/dev/sda3 swap 4G SWAP
/dev/sda4 ext4 16G / ROOT
Booting GRUB-2 through UEFI
On "4. Install Bootloader" choose "UEFI-GRUB".
The UEFI boot partition will be /dev/sda1.
The GRUB device path will be (hd0,2) - the default, /dev/sda2 where the
kernel resides.
ANY IDEAS?
James
