Hi Recently I faced problem installing SL6.3 on a machine. I didn't have such problem before so your comments are appreciated.
The machine has two physical disks (D0, D1) each has 1TB capacity and I attach a USB flash (2 GB) which contains a live image of SL6.3. So the boot priority in the BIOS looks like JetFlash D0 D1 Using the installation wizard, I see a layout like this /dev/sda 2GB /dev/sdb 1TB / 900GB swap 100GB /dev/sdc 1TB The default location for GRUB is then /dev/sda. Problem is, after installation I remove the USB flash but it doesn't boot because the grub had been installed on /dev/sda (which was JetFlash) and now there is no such device As another try, in the installation wizard where we can configure the boot loader, I selected /dev/sdb (where root and swap is installed). This time when I remove/disconnect the flash, the boot stuck again. The reason is that, when I disconnect the flash, D0 becomes /dev/sda and D1 becomes /dev/sdb. So again there is no grub!! Overall there is a loop and I haven't figured out how to resolve it Regards, Mahmood
