[Bug 444151] Re: Have to delete search line for system to boot
I have this problem too, a fresh install of the official Koala release on a single drive on an ageing Asus A2500L laptop, no other operating systems. I do not know my way around Linux (or Unix) yet, which is why I am using Ubuntu. If someone could give me precise instructions on how to edit the grub commands permanently, I would be most appreciative...or should I wait for a patch? -- Have to delete search line for system to boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/444151 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 403408 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/403408 Matthew see my comment here in the other report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/403408/comments/10 But the changes get lost as soon as grub-common gets upgraded. But that should be less often then update-grub gets run due to a kernel update or due to changes you want to make etc. ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 403408 Grub 2 problem, error: no such device -- Have to delete search line for system to boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/444151 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 444151] Re: Have to delete search line for system to boot
Yep. I've got this issue too. I've got a laptop with a single PATA drive, with a fresh install of the Karmic RC. No other operating systems are installed. The system will not boot unless I edit and delete the search line. This seems kind of serious, since as mentioned, this happens with a fresh install of the Release Candidate. If this ships in the official release as-is, I am predicting massive breakage, with the wailing and the gnashing of teeth... ** Changed in: grub2 (Ubuntu) Status: New = Confirmed -- Have to delete search line for system to boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/444151 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have the same issue, on a DELL D610 laptop. What would be the correct way to work around this issue. grub.cfg says it should not be edited by hand, I have to modify the scripts in /etc/grub. But which one, and how ? -- Have to delete search line for system to boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/444151 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Same here when install 9.10 multi-boot with Windows XP. The installer created the following partitions: /dev/sda1 * 1 14236 114350638+ 7 HPFS/NTFS /dev/sda2 14237 1945741937682+ 5 Extended /dev/sda5 14237 1923740170501 83 Linux /dev/sda6 19238 19457 1767118+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris With UUIDs: /dev/sda1: UUID=8A34BE3E34BE2CD7 TYPE=ntfs /dev/sda5: UUID=c290075b-f3a3-4155-8d9c-d450d268c26a TYPE=ext4 /dev/sda6: UUID=d3ba4c62-5290-4d55-88a7-88729dbf9bfa TYPE=swap Then the search lines in grub.cfg always fail and need to be removed, one from 00_header gives a warning first but can be ignored, then the 10_linux entries stop the system from booting: search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set c290075b-f3a3-4155-8d9c- d450d268c26a Windows XP launches fine with it's search line: search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 8a34be3e34be2cd7 -- Have to delete search line for system to boot https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/444151 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
