Hi Everyone! I’ve installed a grub2 theme (https://github.com/shvchk/fallout-grub-theme), everything went well, no issues. Thing is, when I tried to change the Grub resolution, I’ve edit /boot/grub2/grub.cfg and change ’ set gfxmode=auto ’ to ’ set gfxmode=1920x1080’, save as sudo, then when I try to apply the changes, I get the following error:
╰─$ sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg 1 ↵**[sudo] password for root: **
insmod: ERROR: could not load module part_gpt: No such file or directory
“part_gpt” mod is located in /boot/grub2/x86_64-efi, but it seems that grub2 fails to load the mod (command is “insmod part_gpt”).
Where can be the problem located? I’ve try to revert the changes I’ve made but got same results.
I’ll appreciate any idea/solution/comment.
Thanks!
Cheers,
Miguel.
It is unclear what you are doing there.
If I use:
grep part_gpt /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
I get many lines of output. And I don’t get error messages about it when running “grub2-mkconfig”.
However, if you are booting with “shim.efi”, then the use of “insmod” is blocked. However, “part_gpt” is preloaded into grub (into “/boot/efi/EFI/opensuse/grub.efi”) so this does not cause problems.
If you are not using “shim.efi” (if you are instead using “grubx64.efi” for booting), then “insmod” should work.
Hi @nrickert, thanks for replying, I just tried to change grub screen resolution, but I think I found the issue.
Somehow I paste “/boot/grub/grub2” to “/etc/default/grub”. Now I need a clear /etc/default/grub file to replace it.
Both “/boot/grub/grub2” and “/etc/default/grub” are identical, and I remember that they were quite different.
My suggestion:
(1) remove "/etc/default/grub
(2) Do a forced reinstall of grub2 (you can use "update unconditionally in Yast for this).
(3) Run Yast bootloader to set booting as desired (that will update “/etc/default/grub”).
At least that’s what I would try. Or maybe I would just copy “/etc/default/grub” from a similarly configured computer, and then use just step (3).
I copy the file from a Live ISO and now everything is working ! Thanks!
In case someday, someone needs this file, I’ll let a copy here:
If you change this file, run ‘update-grub’ afterwards to update# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.
