G'day all,
Calling all GRUB guru's....
Setting up a box here with mirrored 120GB drives. I used to do this with
lilo, and it was clever enough to sort it all out pretty automaticly.
I found a howto somewhere on the net and followed it, but when I unplug
hda and fire it up, I just get a grub error message telling me it's
misconfigured.
My /boot/grub/menu.conf
default 2
fallback 3
timeout 2
color cyan/blue white/blue
title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.4.18-bf2.4
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-bf2.4 root=/dev/hda1 ro
savedefault
title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.4.18-bf2.4 (recovery mode)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-bf2.4 root=/dev/hda1 ro single
savedefault
title 2.4.22 (hda)
kernel (hd0,0)/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage root=/dev/md0
title 2.4.22 (hdc)
Kernel (hd1,0)/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage root=/dev/md0
My /boot/grub/device.map
(fd0) /dev/fd0
(hd0) /dev/hda
(hd1) /dev/hdc
I set grub up with a grub-install, then ran grub
grub> root (hd0,0)
grub> setup (hd0)
grub> root (hd1,0)
grub> setup (hd1)
as per the howto, and it boot's fine off hda, but when hda is unplugged,
I can't get it to boot off hdc. The bios will do it, but I have
misconfigured grub somewhere.
Any suggestions?
Cheers,
Brad
