hello guy, i cannot install the beta the grub is broken when i boot up… Anyone experiencing this also?
Tried in brtfs & normal instal …
Did you check the check sums on the iso?? Bad download maybe???
Grub legacy or grub2??
Tried both.
I’m installing it via USB …
But strange behavior my usb is on SDA instead of SDB and my hardrive is SDB instead of SDA…
Check the order in the BIOS. Make sure booting from HDD is the first option + the internal HDD is the first HDD option
If you have a UEFI system, then grub is broken and you will need to disable secure-boot for it to work. If you don’t have a UEFI system, then you probably can’t make sense of that comment.
If you installed from live USB (as you seem to have done), then you most likely have bumped into a bug. It is not so much grub that is broken – it is that no kernel was installed, and you cannot boot without a kernel.
This seems to fix the problem:
1: Boot your live USB (13.1 Beta1)
2: Use “su” in a terminal to get a root shell
3:
# rmdir /read-write/boot
4: exit the root shell
5: Reboot your live USB.
6: On reboot, try
ls -l /boot
You should see kernel and “initrd” files, and they should not have length 0. If that looks good, then reinstall from that running line USB.
So what? This just means your USB controller is found by kernel before your HDD controller, that’s all. There is nothing wrong or broken here.
If you want help in solving your problem, you need to provide information. So far you did not mention even what you are installing.
