 Posted: Fri May 03, 2024 9:54 pm Post subject: os-prober acting up on custom kernel |
 |
|
Hi! I recently started using my own kernel config, but I'm having some problems with os-prober that I didn't have with gentoo-kernel.
If I run it, it somehow detects the running system as a separate one.
| Code: | sudo os-prober
Password:
/dev/nvme0n1p3:Gentoo Linux:Gentoo:linux
/dev/sda1@/efi/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi:Windows Boot Manager:Windows:efi |
Then if I use grub-mkconfig, I get duplicate entries for Gentoo.
Here is my dmesg output and here is my kernel config |

With gentoo-kernel, it didn't matter if it was the only installed kernel or my custom config was there too, I used to have both Installed, but now I only have my custom one.

This might be helpful too, nvme0n1 is the Gentoo system, sda is windows and sdb is just some data

Thanks for the reply! I can't access my pc right now, but I get a Gentoo Linux entry, a Windows entry for the other drive, and another Gentoo entry, as if it was another Gentoo install, but the same as my main (kinda confusing, I know). If I get snippets from the grub.cfg file it might be easier to understand.
The right Linux entry
| Code: | menuentry 'Gentoo GNU/Linux' --class gentoo --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-simple-7505b872-f8e8-4306-a75a-338b3c0570ce' {
load_video
if [ "x$grub_platform" = xefi ]; then
set gfxpayload=keep
fi
insmod gzio
insmod part_gpt
insmod xfs
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 7505b872-f8e8-4306-a75a-338b3c0570ce
echo 'Loading Linux 6.6.21-gentoo ...'
linux /boot/vmlinuz-6.6.21-gentoo root=PARTUUID=4f68bce3-e8cd-4db1-96e7-fbcaf984b709 ro rootfstype=xfs amd-pstate=active quiet cpufreq.default_governor=performance
} |
The wrong one, it detects as if it was some other system, this and the next one are on the /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober section
| Code: | menuentry 'Gentoo Linux (on /dev/nvme0n1p3)' --class gentoo --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'osprober-gnulinux-simple-7505b872-f8e8-4306-a75a-338b3c0570ce' {
insmod part_gpt
insmod xfs
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 7505b872-f8e8-4306-a75a-338b3c0570ce

} |
And windows
| Code: | menuentry 'Windows Boot Manager (on /dev/sda1)' --class windows --class os $menuentry_id_option 'osprober-efi-5AB5-8F7D' {
insmod part_gpt
insmod fat
set root='hd0,gpt1'
if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd0,gpt1 --hint-efi=hd0,gpt1 --hint-baremetal=ahci0,gpt1 5AB5-8F7D
else
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 5AB5-8F7D
fi
chainloader /efi/Microsoft/Boot/bootmgfw.efi

That has happened to me in the past when I had two bootable partitions in a BIOS/MBR system.

Do you see the bold text?
I'm not sure what's going on as your system appears to be too new to have BIOS/MBR boot, but you have nvme0n1p3 bootable. The output of grub-mkconfig might be more informative.
| Code: | | fdisk -l /dev/nvme0n1 |
might confirm that, also the output of blkid might be useful.

You've messed up formatting, everything is on one line, code tags are useless that way.
I fixed them but please be careful not to do that in the future when asked for information.
I haven't messed up with disk partitions for quite a while and I don't have much experience with GPT, so I maybe asked you for the not so relevant output.
Try with `parted -l`, I hope it gives us more info but I'm pretty sure you have a bootable nvme0n1p3 and if you select the redundant Gentoo entry you will enter another grub instance possibly with the same menu. You can verify that by selecting the redundant option again and if it continues to give you a new grub instance with the same menu you can be certain that's the case.

This is the expected output when using os-prober. It will always show what grub finds for Linux (using /etc/grub.d/10_linux) and what os-prober finds as a program (using /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober). Grub does not have a way to eliminate things found in both places.
If you don't like this, then take the output for windows and stick it in /boot/grub/custom.cfg to be persistent (which is loaded by /etc/grub.d/41_custom) and discontinue os-prober usage. (Or find your own creative way to edit the GRUB config)

It looks like you replied to my earlier post. I already fixed it. You don't need to torture yourself that way. See my replay and take your time, do it in a convenient way, that's not an urgent issue.
EDIT: grknight already replied with a solution

If you don't like this, then take the output for windows and stick it in /boot/grub/custom.cfg to be persistent (which is loaded by /etc/grub.d/41_custom) and discontinue os-prober usage. (Or find your own creative way to edit the GRUB config) |
I see, if I can't find why this only happens with my custom config, I'll go this route, do you have any idea why os-prober would output just windows when using gentoo-kernel? |

os-prober looks for certain things. If what gentoo-kernel installs goes beyond any fingerprint that os-prober has knowledge of, then it will be skipped. |

The problem isn't on what gentoo-kernel installs, even with both my custom config and gentoo-kernel installed, os-prober would only return windows when running gentoo-kernel and both windows and Gentoo when running my custom config |

I found out this is actually a bug that was reported on the Gentoo package page, 1.81-r1 works on my system, but from what I read there, there isn't a version of this package that works for everyone.
Thanks for the suggestion! |
