LFS 6.2 grub boot error 15 problem
Hi all,
I have been getting an Error 15 message when I try to boot into my shiny new LFS system. The error message is as follows:
Quote:
Booting 'lfs 6.2'
root (hd1,6)
Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83
kernel (hd1,6)/boot/lfskernel-2.6.16.27 root=/dev/sdb7
Error 15: File not found
Press any key to continue...

My host system is openSUSE 10.2 and sits on a different disk to the one LFS resides on. I have edited the grub files in the host system to allow me to boot into LFS instead of installing grub as instructed to do in Chapter 8.4 Making the LFS System Bootable.
First, running:
fdisk -l
gives the following:

The host system (openSUSE 10.2) sits on sda5; LFS sits on sdb7.
My grub files from openSUSE look like this:
/boot/grub/menu.1st:

and /etc/grub.conf looks like this:

I don't understand why I am getting the Error 15 message at all. When I look at the LFS system (which I have mounted under openSUSE) I can see that the file /boot/lfskernel-2.6.16.27 is there, so the message makes absolutely no sense to me. If anyone can help in any way I'd massively appreciate it. Thanks in advance. |
