 |
|
i am mostly through an install to the first disk on my hpt374 onboard controller. it is recognized as /dev/hde, and it is NOT in an array.
when trying to install grub:
| Code: |
livecd / # grub-install /dev/hde
/dev/hde does not have any corresponding BIOS drive.
|
i tried manually installing grub:
| Code: |
grub> root (hd0,0)
Error 5: Partition table invalid or corrupt
|
mount reveals:
| Code: |
livecd / # mount
rootfs on / type rootfs (rw)
tmpfs on /newroot type tmpfs (rw)
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 on /newroot/mnt/cdrom type iso9660 (ro)
/dev/loop/0 on /newroot/mnt/livecd type squashfs (ro)
proc on /newroot/proc type proc (rw,nodiratime)
sysfs on /newroot/sys type sysfs (rw)
udev on /newroot/dev type tmpfs (rw,nosuid)
devpts on /newroot/dev/pts type devpts (rw)
tmpfs on /newroot/mnt/livecd/lib/firmware type tmpfs (rw)
tmpfs on /newroot/mnt/livecd/usr/portage type tmpfs (rw)
usbfs on /newroot/proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw)
/dev/hde2 on / type ext3 (rw)
/dev/hde1 on /boot type ext3 (rw)
/dev/hde4 on /home type ext3 (rw)
none on /proc type proc (rw,nodiratime)
|
Can someone give me a way to find out the correct argument to feed to grub, in order to get it installed?
