[SOLVED] "missing operating system" after copying with dd

windstory · 07-09-2010, 10:38 PM

I have a message of "missing operating system" after copying with dd.

The hard disk is 250G of sata which is installed Centos 5.4 x86 and has a boot partition - 101.9 mb and an LVM - 232 Gb.

I boot by Live CD, and put this command.

Quote:

> grub

grub> find /grub/stage1

(hd0,0)

At thos stage I don;t find any guide for this.

Please let me know to boot this drive.

Thanks in advance.

I've found this guide, and solved this problem.

Quote:

Boot the system from an installation boot medium.

Type linux rescue at the installation boot prompt to enter the rescue environment.

Type chroot /mnt/sysimage to mount the root partition.

Type /sbin/grub-install /dev/hda to reinstall the GRUB boot loader, where /dev/hda is the boot partition.

Review the /boot/grub/grub.conf file, as additional entries may be needed for GRUB to control additional operating systems.

Reboot the system.
