Grub2 Commands
favorite I have installed Ubuntu 12.04 on my computer. The install went fine but now I have the next error while booting: grub stage 1.5 - error 2 I'm posting from the live CD and I didn't find an useful answer in Google. 12.04 grub2 boot-failure share|improve this question edited Dec 1 '12 at 18:58 Lucio 8,3921761114 asked Dec 1 '12 at 18:31 Gabriel 113 1 Adding the output of the boot info script to your question grub rescue normal.mod not found would help, but stage1.5 is part of grub-legacy and 12.04 uses grub2, so you must have some other disk that has an old broken grub install on it that you are booting rather than the one you installed 12.04 on. –psusi Dec 1 '12 at 20:50 Thanks for your help ! I understand what you wrote, but I'm a newbie with Ubuntu. Where is this boot info script ? I didn't find it. Before installing Ubuntu I was running Kubuntu (don't remember the version). Maybe am I still lauching the old grub... But how to check it ? I tried "sudo grub" on my Live cd, but i get a "command not found"... –Gabriel Dec 1 '12 at 23:49 Google for boot info script and it should be the first thing that comes up. Do you have more than one hard drive? –psusi Dec 2 '12 at 1:24 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 1 down vote Boot from LiveCD and from a terminal run 'grub-install /dev/hda' command and then boot from the hard disk. The command will do a fresh install of grub on your hard disk and overwrite any previous versions of grub. Hopefully this will fix it. share|improve this answer answered Dec 4 '12 at 22:32 gdesilva 211 add a comment| Your Answer draft saved draft disca

The information applies to most versions of GRUB 2, but is specifically written for version 1.99. GRUB 1.99 is http://askubuntu.com/questions/224336/grub-error-2-while-booting-ubuntu-12-04 included on Ubuntu releases 11.04 (Natty Narwhal) and later. For more information on a variety of GRUB 2 topics, please visit the GRUB2 main page. For information on converting to or from GRUB Legacy, please view the Grub2/Upgrading community doc. The GRUB 2 bootloader is included on all currently-supported versions of the Ubuntu family. GRUB 2 can accomodate traditional computer firmware such as BIOS as well as the newer EFI/UEFI standards. It is https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing compatible with MBR, GPT and other partitioning tables. All references to GRUB pertain to GRUB 2. Where GRUB 0.97 is discussed, it will be referred to by version number or as GRUB Legacy. GRUB 2 Initial Installation GRUB 2 installation is automatically incorporated into a normal Ubuntu installation. Input required by the user for the initial setup is very simple. If the installation will use the entire disk no specific GRUB selections are necessary. If the user wants to use a specific partition for Ubuntu the user must select the Ubuntu partition and the drive on which to embed the bootloader information. The main GRUB 2 folder locations include /boot/grub/ and /etc/grub.d/. User preferences are stored in the /etc/default/grub file. The GRUB 2 menu is built by information contained in /boot/grub/grub.cfg. Installation Options (LiveCD) Using the Entire Drive ( "Erase disk and install Ubuntu" ): Install on entire drive: The user should select a drive on which Ubuntu and GRUB 2 will be installed. GRUB 2 will overwrite the drive's boot information and place the GRUB 2 files in the appropriate locations. Installing Ubuntu to a Specific Partition ("Something Else"): When using the "Something Else" option, you will be offered to choose the "Device for bootloader installation". Please select: * either the disk (eg /dev/sdX, not /dev/

Fix: Rather simple really go into your BIOS and reset the IDE hard-drive settings from (Auto) to a DMA mode the hard-drvie does not recognise, e.g. On the following two motherboards, Asus A8V Deluxe (model A + B I'm build
