> How do I tell whether my grub is ok (without rebooting)? I too would like to know this. I have a linode server with OS on /dev/sda, that grub-install doesn't like:
root@radish-linode:~# grub-install /dev/sda Installing for i386-pc platform. grub-install: warning: File system `ext2' doesn't support embedding. grub-install: warning: Embedding is not possible. GRUB can only be installed in this setup by using blocklists. However, blocklists are UNRELIABLE and their use is discouraged.. grub-install: error: will not proceed with blocklists. root@localhost:~# file -s /dev/sda /dev/sda: DOS/MBR boot sector I don't know whether to force it or not. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1889509 Title: grub boot error : "symbol 'grub_calloc' not found To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1889509/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
