I have this problem with an old machine where the BIOS does not
recognize the full size of the hard disk.
The machine is a Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop and the BIOS recognizes the
disk as 137GB even though it is really 250GB.
Grub2 won't boot off a partition that goes beyond where the BIOS sees

Do you have a Gigabyte MB?
I had that problem with a GB. I don't know how GB handles the HPA writting
process, but if you have a GB (or any other writting-HPA-motherboard) and you
had the problem before you updated the BIOS, maybe you can get a try to hdparm
to update the value in
Sorry, I forgot to say that when Gigabyte writes the HPA to correct the
amount of space, it has a bug, so a 1TB disk is reported as 33Mb, a 2TB
as 1TB and so on.

Title:
grub 2 error: out of disk. failed to boot default entries.
Hello, everybody.
After read a lot of pages, try a lot of possible solutions and fail
every time, I still have the same out of disk error on GRUB load.
Last step I took: ensambled a PC with an ASUS M5A78L LE, Athlon II X3, 4Gb RAM,
SATA HDD WDC WD10EARS-00MVWB0 1TB.
Soft: Linux Mint 12 (Ubuntu
Just to add to JuanMatias post.
I have had the same problem for ages. I recently updated my bios so that it
would recognize the 1TB disk correctly, as per this post

The bios now does recognize the 1TB disk correctly but the PC

bare WEP. I collected several hard drives so I could experiment while

Every version of Ubuntu that uses grub2 gives me an out of disk error
on first boot after a clean install. Whenever a new version comes out I
try installing it on a logical partition (side by side with WinXP), and
it fails to boot.
Despite many tries, couldn't come up with a solution, and
I tried Fedora 15 on a fresh HDD. Used default partitioning with an LVM
-- same problem, GRUB fails to boot me with the same symptoms. Fedora 15
too uses GRUB 0.99. Rolled back to Ubuntu 10.10 with GRUB 0.97 -- works
like a charm. IMO the problem is clearly somewhere in v0.97 GRUB =
v0.99

I too experience the issue.
I have been carrying my root+home+swap partitions from version to version no
problem until 10.10 and 11.04; Now I have to boot livecd first, then restart,
and boot from HDD.
Has anyone reported that to grub2 as a bug?

I didn't. I ended up playing around with grub-mkimage and built my own grub
core image. That's been allowing me to boot off of the SD card.
I think I might be able to get it back to the situation I was in before
I reinstalled grub. I might try putting it back and then see if the fix
@Davidian1024
I think this problem is caused by trying to boot off a usb/external device,
your case is quite normal, most (maybe all) of the people with this bug are
booting off usb/external devices.
Have you tried the fix above, deleting the first two lines of the
relevant boot sequence?

My computer (Compaq evo n600) doesn't have a hard-disk, since i've

I'll try tonight to remove the line if [ -n ${have_grubenv} ]; then

Ok, I've commented the line and it boots again! The error message out
of disk is still displayed, but at least it boots.
I've also commented the line in the file /etc/grub.d/10_linux , because
the file grub.cfg is generated.
