I performed an update last night on Ubuntu 9.10 64 bit (I started in Ubuntu 9.04, updated in about November to 9.10). Everything seemed to go well with the update last night. Tonight I wanted to boot into Windows Vista. I got the following message when I chose the option for other OSes: "Error 11: Unrecognized device string". I noticed that it doesn't give the option for Vista. From some other forums I looked at my menu.lst file, which I reproduce here. The last two options (Windows vista and XP) doesn't appear in my GRUB menu at start up. I also include /boot/grub/device.map and fdisk -l below. Code: ## timeout sec # Set a timeout, in SEC seconds, before automatically booting the default entry # (normally the first entry defined). timeout 10 # ......................... # A bunch more comments (starting with #) that I removed. Let me know if I should repost with them. # ......................... ## ## End Default Options ## title Ubuntu 9.10, kernel 2.6.31-17-generic uuid f7fc3d3d-eb82-4572-a75b-4449d0755913 kernel

Join Date Jan 2009 Posts 3 [SOLVED] GRUB Error 11: Unrecognized Device String OK, I apologize for having very little information on what happened. Here's what I know: I was running linux mint 6 on an ASUS F8SV-B1 laptop. I was browsing the internet, etc. on my bed, set the computer down on the comforter and went upstairs. I came back two hours later, the computer was off (heat overload I'm guessing ). So I turned it back on, that's when the first strange thing happened: Normally, in my GRUB boot menu, my linux mint entry is labeled as ubuntu, because I installed ubuntu there first, then mint, and the boot loader always kept that entry labeled as ubuntu. Now, it was labelled as Linux Mint 6. Wierd. Then when I tried to boot from that (or the option for recovery mode) I get an Error 11: Unrecognized device string. My windows xp entry still boots fine. What the heck happened do you think? Last edited by salparadise17; 01-10-2009 at 07:

My pen drive is /dev/sda and partition 1 is vfat. It's mounted on /mnt/usb. Here's what happens when I try to use grub-install: [root@localhost ~]# grub-install –root-directory=/mnt/usb /dev/sda More than one install_devices? Usage: grub-install [OPTION] install_device Install GRUB on your drive. -h, --help print this message and exit -v, --version print the version information and exit --root-directory=DIR install GRUB images under error 15 file the directory DIR instead of the root directory --grub-shell=FILE use FILE as the grub shell --no-floppy do not probe any floppy drive --force-lba force GRUB to use LBA mode even for a buggy BIOS --recheck probe a device map even if it already exists This flag is unreliable and its use is strongly discouraged. INSTALL_DEVICE can be a GRUB device name or a system device filename. grub-install copies GRUB images into the DIR/boot directory specfied by --root-directory, and uses the grub shell to install grub into the boot sector. I don't understand the error message in this context, What am I doing wrong? linux grub centos-6 share|improve this question edited Jan 30 '13 at 20:05 Indrek 17.3k116277 asked Jan 30 '13 at 19:03 Nate Lockwood 14417 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 2 down vote accepted The problem is that you are copying the commands directly from the webpage and this results in your pasting an em dash (—) instead of two consecutive minus signs (--) which is what you need to use. All long (--foo-bar) options in *nix are given with two consecutive minus signs. So, try this: grub-install --boot-directory=/mnt/usb /dev/sda Note the difference between –boot-directory and --boot-directory. share|improve this answer edited Jan 31 '13 at 1:58 answered Jan 30 '13 at 19:11 terdon 33.5k66299 Got the same error message.
