<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have a problem where I have a VM with 5209 and it will not reboot, it shows the linux boot menu, the shows that it can’t find command ‘[‘ as well as a few other similar lines (different characters/letters I suspect different mount points
for the different kernels or similar), which appears to be a grub issue from what I have been reading when it cannot find the mount or mounts in my case as none of them will boot.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So here is what I have done…<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Loaded up an ISO of 5209, booted with it, and selected to do trouble shooting.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It did produce an error about SUuser or something (I did not take too much notice of it at the time as I am working with a copy of the live VM).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So once at a bash prompt I did the following after if mounted the image with all the current folders appearing as I would expect:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I then use the following command…<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><i>/sbin/grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg<o:p></o:p></i></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Which comes back with:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><i>grub-install: error: /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/modinfo.sh doesn't exist. Please specify --target or --directory.<o:p></o:p></i></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So I am suspecting it needs to be something like <b><i>/mnt/sysimage/boot/grub2/i386-pc/</i></b> ? As that is one of the locations I found the missing file to located at.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">But when I do that, it finds a CentOS install and then I exit/reboot, I get…<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><i>Error: file ‘/grub2/i386-pc/priority_queue.mod’ not found.<o:p></o:p></i></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><i>Entering rescue mode…<o:p></o:p></i></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><i>grub rescue> _<o:p></o:p></i></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">From this point I cannot seem to make any further progress.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is there a recommended way to “fix” a broken grub bootloader for BlueOnyx?
<br>
What/where can I check to make sure the correct files are in the location expected?<br>
<br>
<br>
I have not seen anything specific and mainly reviewing CentOS references to this and suspect I am missing something relatively simple.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Regards<o:p></o:p></p>
