I tested to do the following: 1. grub-install /dev/sda1 2. change /dev/md0 in mtab and fstab to /dev/sda1 it did not work, because the /boot could not be found anymore. Created attachment 291083 [details]
Grub-install result
I also tried the following: grub> root (hd0,0) grub> setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 --prefix=/grub (hd0) ... grub> root (hd1,0) grub> setup --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 --prefix=/grub (hd1) but it does not help! Is there anyone who knows the problem?

dmesg result
[root@localhost ~]# grub-install --recheck /dev/md0 Probing devices to guess BIOS drives. This may take a long time. Installation finished. No error reported. This is the contents of the device map /boot/grub/device.map. Check if this is correct or not. If any of the lines is incorrect, fix it and re-run the script `grub-install'. (fd0) /dev/fd0 (hd0) /dev/sda (hd1) /dev/sdb (hd2) /dev/sdc (hd3) /dev/sdd All above have been done in rescue mode after chroot /mnt/sysimage Now I have been looking into an another machine with FC3. It has grub + raid but not lvm. Boot is /dev/md0 The setup is exactly the same as in the FC8. It works just fine!!!! What is the difference? BIOS problem? No, I don't think so as the machines are exactly the same and have the same BIOS as well as hardware. My conclusion is that something must have happened with GRUB from FC3 -> FC8 I can not use the machine at all because I can only start it in rescue mode. Is there anyone who can help me as this is a critical error. I would be thankful to get some advice. |
