Problem with Installation on DELL Poweredge with Hardware RAID 1

https://bbs.archlinux.org – Well, you can see your RAID partitions and you're getting GRUB to load, and you are even being dropped to the recovery shell which means that the /boot partition is being found and is accessible. All vary, vary good things.I would boot into the Arch live CD/USB again. Then check the UUID of the / Root partition. To do this I just check the log listing of /dev/disk/by-uuidls -l /dev/disk/by-uuidHopefully the UUID for the /root partition in the /boot/grub/grub.cfg is incorrect, and all you need to do is change it from 'UUID=40e603e9-7285-4ec8-8a06-a579358a52a0' to the correct UUID (HowTos)

Do you know the partition that is supposed to be your root partition?Grub cannot find it by its UUID.   Reboot, at the grub menu, highlight the kernel you want to boot, and press 'e'.  You are dropped into a simple editor which will allow you to change the boot command.  Replace references to /dev/disk/by-uuid/...

Is it possible to use grub-install or update-grub to just search on specific disk/partition? (or ignore specific)?

I installed Ubuntu 12.04 on my hard drive, but i wished to do some testing on it without harming current installation, so I "rsynced" root partition (the only) to the USB partition (ext4). I did fix /etc/fstab on USB partition.

[all variants] UUID and Grub 37 weeks 4 days ago

Q1. In /boot/grub/grub there are many references to a UUID. Where does grub get this reference? I would like to change the source and then run update-grub. I prefer not to edit the grub file manually because then when I do run update-grub the UUID will come back.

Q2.

Hello, I wasn't sure where to post this issue so I figured I could do it here. It's both a GRUB and BURG issue, both work the same way. Anyways, I have GRUB version 1.98-1ubuntu13. I just did some modifications to my partitions using GParted. Everything went fine and my other OSses were detected fine by the OS-prober script. I had a problem with my Archlinux partition though.

Well, at boot time, hit 'e' during the countdown.  That will put you into a simple editor that shows the grub commands.  Make sure that the root command corresponds to the root partition called out in the kernel command line.  Here are mineroot (hd0,4) kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/73796934-070f-4e79-a973-229432222e58 ro initrd /kernel26.imgOn my system, that

Hi,

I had to replace a disk in my raid-1 and unfortunately, the rebuild didn't work. I have a backup of the system, so I set up a new raid. The system partition is an image (with partimage), I have a /home partition for the data, and a swap-partition. I used a Live-CD and created three partitions in (almost) the same size as the old ones.

Hi, thx for your answers.First of all i dont use lvm.Yes there is another physical disk. So i will try to switch defining my discs by UUID, I didnt used it yet so, I propably should change all of records, isnt it? Thats mean grub,crypttab a fstab or there is anything else?

I have Ubuntu installed on a 32 GB SD card (in the Storage Expansion slot on an Acer Aspire One) with Grub2 installed in the same partition. I boot into legacy Grub on a USB drive and would like to boot by chainloading Grub2 from Grub (kernel/initrd or symlink booting would also be fine), but I haven't figured out how to do this from legacy Grub CLI.

Hello, my recent kernel upgrade seems to have broken /dev/disk:

This is on a UEFI/gpt system 1. No /dev/disk/by-uuid entry after partition 4 e.g.
