grub boot issue
Posted: 07 Jun 2023, 06:45
I re-partitioned my Win 11 laptop, and put the Porteus 5.0 stuff in a newly created partition. Then, install grub bootloader to my harddisk using a another Porteus running using a USB thumb.
When booting, I got these:
error: no suitable video mode found
boot in blind mode
Nevertheless, booting goes on ( in blind) and I got the Xfce came up properly.
My question is what modification to my grub.cfg is needed to fix the above error.
Here is my grub.cfg looks like.
set timeout=5
insmod part_gpt
menuentry "Porteus-Xfcecv5.0" {
insmod ext2
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root a4454f81-2083-4959-b428-48f06d79bc1f
linux /porteus-5.0_xfce/porteus/vmlinuz from=UUID:a4454f81-2083-4959-b428-48f06d79bc1f/porteus-5.0_xfce changes=EXIT:/porteus-5.0_xfce/porteus/porteus5b_save1_ext3.dat nomagic norootcopy
initrd /porteus-5.0_xfce/porteus/initrd.xz
}
Help appreciated.
By the way, when I ran "grub-mkconfig -o /tmp/grub.cfg" in my porteus5.0 , I got error:
/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: failed to get canonical path of `aufs'.
