Error 15 File Not Found Centos
New stand alone installation - GRUB error 15 - re-installing GRUB doesn't help! Hi ... I'm new to Puppy and pretty much to Linux as well, so please forgive ... I've error 15 file not found windows 7 completed a new installation of Puppy 4 on an old 700mhz laptop with a 40Gb HD and 256Mb ram. I followed the instructions here: http://www.puppylinux.org/manuals/puppy-40/english/how-install-puppy/full-installation The exception from the example given in the instructions was that I used hda1 as it was the only choice presented to me. On rebooting, expecting to see GRUB coming up and allowing me to boot from the HD, error 15 file not found press any key to continue I got an error (which I didn't take a record of at the time, but it basically told me that GRUB could continue - presented on a black screen.) So I scratched my head and thought of re-running the Live CD and re-running grubconfig. I did this and it seemed to go okay, where I chose /dev/hda1 as the destination, and also took the MBR option. On re-booting again, I find now that I'm presented with a GRUB menu showing three options: boot from Linux on /dev/hda1 Install GRUB on a floppy (which I don't have or want) Install GRUB on the Linux partition /dev/hda1 Choosing just to boot from /dev/hda1 gets me the GRUB error 15 Choosing to re-install to /dev/hda1 seems to go okay, but gets me back to the same menu, where again, choosing to boot from /dev/hda1 gets me GRUB error 15 I seem to have followed what I could understand to do, but I now seem to be going in circles. I've obviously done something wrong, but I just can't figure out what or where . I've looked at the "How To" install to an HD, b

Join Date Aug 2011 Posts 15 Error 15 on bootup (Won't boot) I forgot my username and password to login, so I read up on the issue and learned that the simplest solution would be to reinstall arch. So I reinstalled it and now I get the following error message on bootup: Code: root (hd0,2) Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83 kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sda4 ro Error 15: File not found Press any key to continue... I did a few searches on google and can not find out what the problem is. Do you guys have any idea how I can fix this?

I don't run Arch so I don't know if it uses Legacy Grub or Grub2 or I would also recommend posting the contents of grub legacy /boot/grub/menu.lst or for Grub 2 it is /etc/grub.d Any Live cd like Puppy can access those in

I'm guessing there was a kernel update that went badly, as people are pointing out that there was a power outage this week. I think it caught the server in the midst of updating the kernel. Anyway, here's some information. When working through the grub prompt (which is all I can get to) I run through the steps of the tutorial here: Solving Boot Problems with Grub - 2nd Edition - Linux Forums Where I use the following commands: Code: root (hd0,2) kernel (hd0,2)/ I hit tab to list possible files, and I find vmlinuz2.6.5-7.316-smp I use that as the kernel, and then use the following command: Code: initrd (hd0,2)/ hit tab again, and come up with the only file: initrd-2.6.5-7.244-smp-old Obviously these two will not play well with each other. Any ideas?
