those are.So, sda1 should be /boot. sda2 should be /. sda3 should be swap. (I setup the partitions manually, not with the auto configure)So, I just mounted /dev/sda1 in archlive, and grub/menu.lst contains this:root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/3525ec64-d3dc-4bec-b9d2-172633f4a3a4 ro initrd /boot/kernel26.imgBut, I get this error message in grub:root (hd0,0) error 15 file not found windows 7 Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83 kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 Error 15: File not found Press any key to continue...Any ideas? I know it has to be something small...Also, a side question, why format /boot as ext2 instead of say something like ext3? What does ext2 have over ext3?♦ Last edited by Ek0nomik (2008-10-03 22:06:19) Offline #2 2008-10-03 18:30:26 Ek0nomik Member From: Wisconsin Registered: 2008-05-01 Posts: 7 Re: [SOLVED] Grub Error 15: File Not Found One more thing, when I go into grub and type:root (hd0,0)and root (hd0,1)they both return the same thing:Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83.Since one is ext2, and the other ext3, shouldn't it say something different?

Just let me know what is needed.Some basic information that I can think of.../dev/sda1 (/dev/sdf1 in anaconda/centos) is the efi system partition to be mounted at /boot/efi/dev/sdb1 (/dev/sdg1 in anaconda/centos) is the boot partition to be mounted at /boot/dev/md0 is a RAID 1 array and is encrypted. It is to be mouted error 15 to / (it is my root).There is a /dev/md1 (RAID 5) that contains about 8 logical volumes (all encrypted).What happens is, when the machine boots, I getCode: Select allError 15: File not found
Press any key to continue...
When I press a key I see the grub menu with one entry in it for the CentOS system I just installedI press < enter > on the selection and it goes back to the Error 15 thing (so it goes around error 15 file in a loop).My gut feeling is that grub can't find /boot. Could there's a problem in grub.conf and grub can't find the kernel? If it could, I would see a bunch of output from dmesg as the machine continues to boot, wouldn't I? But it doesn't seem to get that far. I also noticed that in grub.conf it says no_raid no_lvm. Could that be right? I would think the latter would be true of root but not the former ("no_raid") as root is on /dev/md0 which is a RAID 1.I'm a bit out of my depth in understanding this whole thing. Can someone please help me get this problem fixed?Thanks in advanceJake Top ClientAlive Posts: 6 Joined: 2013/06/09 20:20:54 Contact: Contact ClientAlive Website Re: [RESOLVED] GRUB Error 15: file not found - first boot on fresh install Quote Postby ClientAlive » 2013/06/14 02:52:49 Apparently the installation has trouble with /boot on one disk and /boot/efi on another disk - they have to both be on the same disk. (Or maybe it just can't be done that way). After redoing my partitions and a fresh install everything seems to work fine.Jake Top Display posts from previous: All posts1 day7 days2 weeks1 month3 months6 months1 year Sort by AuthorPost timeSubject AscendingDescending Post Reply Print view 3 posts • Page 1 of 1 Return to “CentOS 6 - General Support” Jump to CentOS General Purpose CentOS - FAQ & Rea
