Member Registered: 2008-03-30 Posts: 57 GRUB, new Windows and "Invalid device requested" Hi. I had my previous Windows on sda1. My new https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=127085 Windows 7 is on sda7 and It was working until I removed this one from sda1. So, I changed my menu.lst. I changed "hd(0,0)" to "hd(0,6)" and https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/legacy/Stage2-errors.html the result is:Error 12: Invalid device requestedI'm shure it is this number, so I don't know what is the problem.

the fact that an error occurred or wait for the user to deal with the error. The following is a comprehensive list of error messages for the Stage 2 (error numbers for the Stage 1.5 are listed before the colon in each description): 1 : Filename must be either an absolute filename or blocklistThis error is returned if a file name is requested which doesn't fit the syntax/rules listed in the Filesystem. 2 : Bad file or directory typeThis error is returned if a file requested is not a regular file, but something like a symbolic link, directory, or FIFO. 3 : Bad or corrupt data while decompressing fileThis error is returned if the run-length decompression code gets an internal error. This is usually from a corrupt file. 4 : Bad or incompatible header in compressed fileThis error is returned if the file header for a supposedly compressed file is bad. 5 : Partition table invalid or corruptThis error is returned if the sanity checks on the integrity of the partition table fail. This is a bad sign. 6 : Mismatched or corrupt version of stage1/stage2This error is returned if the install command points to incompatible or corrupt versions of the stage1 or stage2. It can't detect corruption in general, but this is a sanity check on the version numbers, which should be correct. 7 : Loading below 1MB is not supportedThis error is returned if the lowest address in a kernel is below the 1MB boundary. The Linux zImage format is a special case and can be handled since it has a fixed loading address and maximum size. 8 : Kernel must be loaded before bootingThis error is returned if GRUB is told to execute the boot sequence without having a kernel to start. 9 : Unknown boot failureThis error is returned if the boot attempt did not succeed for reasons which are unknown. 10 : Unsupported Multiboot features requestedThis error is returned when the Multiboot features word in the Multiboot header requires a feature that is not recognized. The point of this is that the kernel requires special handling which GRUB is probably unable to provide. 11 : Unrecognized device stringThis error is returned if a device string was expected, and the string encountered didn't fit the syntax/rules listed in the Filesystem. 12 : Invalid device
