Description of problem: grub2-mkconfig creates xen boot entries with 'insmod module2' while this module is not provided (or already built-in?). This causes an error message during the boot process, but it continues after a while (or by pressing a key). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): grub2-tools-2.02-19.fc27.x86_64 grub2-pc-modules-2.02-19.fc27.noarch How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create new config file with xen-entries by grub2-mkconfig 2. Boot this kernel 3. Actual results: After selecting the entry, grub2 complains about non-existing module2 Expected results: Boot without grub2-warnings. Additional info: Apparently the scripts /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen needs some amendments.
module2 is part of multiboot2.mod see /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/command.lst: multiboot2: multiboot2 module2: multiboot2 multiboot: multiboot module: multiboot so removed the 'insmod ${module_loader}' line from /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen and it is related to #1486002#33 that is closed. I don't know if is also working on arm64
I am aware of the bug fix, but will the patch also go into the rpm-package some day? (Bug #1486002 is not closed yet).
This message is a reminder that Fedora 27 is nearing its end of life. On 2018-Nov-30 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 27. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '27'. 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. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 27 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, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. 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.
Fedora 27 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2018-11-30. Fedora 27 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.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. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
Just upgraded to f28 and hit this. Please bump version. Xen boots with an f27 kernel currently, but this module error seems to be causing confusion, e.g. bug 1486002 . Addressing this will help clarify other issues. # grep module2 /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen module_loader="module2" # rpm -qf /etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen grub2-tools-2.02-38.fc28.x86_64 # rpm -q xen xen-4.10.2-2.fc28.x86_64
