Hello all,
I' Tried to install openfiler 2.x on a 2Gb Kingston Compact Flash on
an IDE CF Adapter.
- Firstly I tried a basic install from CD-ROM wich failed. I
encountered errors during automatic partitioning and I couldn't boot
after install.
GRUB on the screen with a blinking cursor. That's all.... :-/
- I tried to dd the hdd image of the distro from Rpath Web site, to
the CF.
It failed to boot too :-((
Same thing as above: Just GRUB on the screen with a blinking cursor. :-/
Any help very appreciated :-)
P.S.: maybe it is a menu.lst config and/or fstab problem?
Thanks in advance guys
Hervé
Hi Hervé,
Im not sure if it right, but the first thing that pops into mind is a
lacking MBR.
You would try and start in rescue mode and reinstall the Grub MBR.
Try and have a look at these pages:
http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Installing-GRUB-using-grub_002dinstall.html
http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=975
I got those from a google search grub install mbr
hope that helps..
Cheers
Esben
Ps. have you thought about write cycles on a CF card?
