[SOLVED]GRUB - kubuntu won't boot
Hi all
I'm having some problems setting up my multiboot system. This is what my drives look like: /dev/sda1 - 2gb of swap /dev/sda2 - 30mb of boot /dev/sda3 - mepis root partition /dev/sda4 - extended partition /dev/sda5 - spare 10gb for other distro at later date /dev/sda6 - 20gb /home /dev/sda7 - kubuntu root partition Here is my GRUB menu.lst which is in the Mepis root and is installed on the MBR: Code:
timeout 15 Code:
# Static entries below, do not use 'users' option in this area Code:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information. VFS: Cannot open root dev "sda7" Please append a correct "root=" boot operation Kernel Panic - not syncing VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown block (0,0) I'm dopey, I added: /dev/sda2 /boot ext2 defaults 1 2 to my kubuntu /etc/fstab and it works fine now. Ooops |
I wish you had added a new post so this one does not stay as a 0 replies post and I did not have to read it all before realizing that you had already solved it. ;)
Anyway, I'm glad you found the solution. And just to educate me, I'm courious about your partition set-up: - Why do you have such a large swap? do you have little ram and run heavy processes? Do you support many users logged in to this computer? - What advantage do you see on having a single /boot partition for all your distros?. In my home system I only have a root partition for each distro. - Do you share your home partition between distros? How has that helped you? What problems have you faced? Are there advantages or is it just a matter of preference? |
