that you have destroyed a MBR ( master Boot Record ) grub loading error 17 of your booting partition. In fact this is a very common Grub error message. Usually grub rescue this grub problem is resolved by changing a BIOS boot hard drive priority.It may happen that you just left your USB stick inside your PC and https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=119285 BIOS boots from it because it is set to boot from USB devices as default.Another possible cause for grub loading stage 1.5 error 15 error is that you have added or removed some hard drives from your computer which changed the BIOS's boot order. More info: Grub stage 1.5 is optional stage and https://linuxconfig.org/grub-loading-stage-15-error-15 is 30 KB long and starts right after of MBR. This stage describes file system used on the partition and loads grub's stage 2. Please enable JavaScript to view the comments powered by Disqus.

A while ago, after no updates/changes that I was aware of, my system stopped booting, and gave me: Code: GRUB Loading stage1_5 GRUB Loading, please wait Error grub loading stage 15 The error is in stage 1.5, not stage2, as there is no more info on screen. However, the grub manual tells us that stage 1.5 errors have the same explanations as stage2, and error 15 is "File not found". Presumably, Grub couldn't find stage2. However, after booting with a Grub CD, a quick check shows that the stage2 and all other stuff normally present is there. Furthermore, boot_info_script says all is hunky-dory, Code: Grub Legacy (v0.97) is installed in the MBR of /dev/sda and looks on the same drive in partition #1 for /boot/grub/stage2 and /boot/grub/menu.lst. Grub Legacy (v0.97) is installed in the boot sector of sda1 and looks at sector 17179431 of the same hard drive for the stage2 file. A stage2 file is at this location on /dev/sda. Stage2 looks on partition #1 for /boot/grub/menu.lst. Checked that menu.lst and fstab were ok. Furthermore, using the Grub CD I could boot sda1 by using the chainloader +1 command, and using the configfile command brought up the sda1 menu screen in all its multiple-choice glory. So presumably something is corrupt in the MBR. Easily fixed, I thought, just start up with th

OK Grub stage 1.5 Error: 2 Started by Desertoren , Nov 26 2009 04:15 AM Please log in to reply 3 replies to this topic #1 Desertoren Desertoren Noob Members 3 posts Posted 26 November 2009 - 04:15 AM Hi, i just finished installing slackware 13 and this is the first time i'm using linux. When the setup was finished and i removed the slack-cd and rebooted, i get this message: GRUB Loading stage1.5. GRUB loading, please wait... Error 2From what i've learned this Error 2:"Selected disk doesn't exist" This error is returned if the device part of a device- or full filename refers to a disk or BIOS device that is not present or not recognized by the BIOS in the system.This sort of makes sense since during installation i could not use cfdisk to partition; using cfdisk showed me 600mb of free space on hda, however fdisk -l showed me my 2 harddrives of 250gb each, named sda and sdb. I then had to partition in fdisk and continue with the setup. I don't know if this is the way it's supposed to work, but my guess is that the reason grub can't find my root (or whatever it's looking for), is the same reason cfdisk couldn't find my drives, i.e grub is looking for hda1 or something, when it should be looking for sda1.Here's where i'm stuck: I have no idea how to access menu.lst and change the drive it should be booting from. I would appreciate any help on the matter.MarcusEdit: btw, i have absolutely no idea what "hda" is in the cfdisk list, i have no partition of that size, it just doesn't make sense to me.
