Grub2 cannot find config file 47 weeks 4 days ago

I recently upgraded my system from Fedora 14 to 16 by http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrad...dora_using_yum . All went quite smoothly except for one very odd problem. As you know this upgrade switches from grub to grub2. I created /boot/grub2/grub2.cfg with grub2-mkconfig and ran grub2-install without encountering any errors but when I restart I am taken to the grub prompt.

Grub2 boots into CLI mode. 39 weeks 23 hours ago

I just did a complete reinstall of my laptop installing fedora 17 and windows 7.

I installed Win7 after fedora 17, so i had to boot the live cd, chroot into my fedora install and reinstall grub.

Going through LFS 7.3 and about ready to make it bootable but Fedora's grub is giving me issue.

The plan was to share /boot between LFS and Fedora 18 as I have done in the past (been awhile since I ran LFS - LFS 4.something last time). Hell, I've shared /boot between Fedora, CentOS, Ubuntu, and LFS.

.... would I be right in running the following commands?

Code: grub2-install ## Then mount all my partitions since I've got 2 other OS's on this computer grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg Thanks, JamesNZ

After booting Windows in Recovery Mode, my bootloader disappeared.

Grub arguments missing on boot 43 weeks 4 hours ago

I just got a new ASUS UX32a, and put Fedora 17 on it, and to optimize the power settings, I added the following arguments to etc/default/grub:

Code: pcie_aspm=force drm.vblankoffdelay=1 i915.semaphores=1 Then, I ran the following:

Code: grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg And when I look at /boot/grub2/grub.conf, the new arguments are in there:

Code: # # DO NOT EDIT THIS FI

So I just did a clean install of windows 7 ultimate and installed ubuntu 12.10 beside it. I kept the windows bootloader in the mbr at the advice if my tutorial (i used easyBCD to enable an option for grub2) and installed grub2 to the /boot partition that I made for sda5. If it matters, I set / as sda6, /home as sda7 and swap as sda8.

Hi,

I am running F17 x86 on a ASUS X73SV, LVM and dualboot with win7.

I recently did a :

Code: grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg which lead to a :

Code: /usr/sbin/grub2-probe : warning : entry « hd0,2 » of device.map is incorrect.

I had a drive going bad so I wanted to remove the drive from the lvm but this drive also was where /boot resided. So I followed this tutorial I found on fedora forum http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=264174 but tried to have the /boot added on an already existing lv instead of a new lv called lv_boot in the tutorial. So now I can't boot.
