Re: [fedora-virt] Fedora11-Preview without GRUB
2009/4/29 Ján ONDREJ (SAL) <ondrejj(a)salstar.sk>
Hello,
after my rawhide installation was corrupted, I planned to install a fresh
Fedora11-Preview in virt-manager. Everything worked well, just GRUB has
been
not installed. I can't fix this by running some commands in rescue mode.
My attempts are here:
sh-4.0# df /boot
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/vda1 198337 13573 174524 8% /boot
My root partition is /dev/vda1, so my root disk is /dev/vda
(paravirtualized
disk).
sh-4.0# grub-install /dev/vda
expr: non-numeric argument
/dev/vda1 does not have any corresponding BIOS drive.
Hi, I have the same problem even though my host and guest are not Fedora but
Pardus. It seems somehow that GRUB does not play well with vda disks. As a
workaround, I added the same disk image as hda, installed GRUB, then
reverted it back to vda. It works.
