ot :stuck in GRUB
Hi all, A Friend of mine has some version of either *nux or bsd installed (he does not even know for sure), turns out he clicked yes for some updates to install and upon restarting he now winds up at GRUB , I told him to type boot and it reports kernel must loaded prior to booting I really have no time to get out there, so he shipped me his hard drive which I should be receiving today or tomorrow. It *seems* to me the update may have corrupted some type of conf file, am I on the right track here? Does anyone have any suggestion, since its an old friend I can't charge him, but nor do I want to spend a significant amount of time on it. TIA ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

Re: ot : stuck in GRUB
GRUB is the boot program for several versions of Linux, not for FreeBSD. For a useful answer, ask where Linux weenies hang out, not here. Or even better, just google for the text of the error message.

The pkg-message in sysutils/grub and sysutils/grub2 might help. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
