The broken grub splash image has been reported: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=496202 Plymouth is not involved at this point. This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 11 development cycle. Changing version to '11'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 11 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-06-25. Fedora 11 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
Description of problem: 1) The grub screen with the timeout which when interrupted leads you to choose which operating system to boot is missing. 2) All I can see is the next page where I have to choose the entries (Fedora, Vista etc.). Otherwise no operating system starts. --> the default operating system doesn't boot automatically. --> Grub: # grub.conf generated by anaconda # # Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file # NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that # all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg. # root (hd0,5) # kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/vg_hp-notebook/lv_root # initrd /initrd-version.img #boot=/dev/sda default=2 timeout=7 splashimage=(hd0,5)/grub/splash1.xpm.gz hiddenmenu title Fedora (2.6.29.1-70.fc11.i586) root (hd0,5) kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.29.1-70.fc11.i586 ro root=/dev/dm-0 rhgb quiet vga=792 initrd /initrd-2.6.29.1-70.fc11.i586.img title Windows Vista rootnoverify (hd0,0) chainloader +1 title Windows 7 rootnoverify (hd0,3) chainloader +1 This problem exists since an update after the installation of Fedora 11 Alpha. 3) With the last update the second grub screen (splash1.xpm.gz) is hardly readable; it isn't blue; a lot of different colors. That's why I changed to another splash screen (splash1). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): All updates, date April 18, 2009 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start notebook 2. 3. Actual results: default system doesn't start automatically entries on the bootsplash are hardly readable Expected results: - default starts after timeout is over - fedora bootsplash visible Additional info:
