I just installed fedora 10 using the GUI install, and when I try to boot, it gets me to the grub command line error 8 kernel must be loaded before booting red hat grub> when i enter 'boot', it gives me grub error 8: kernel must be loaded before booting. Not sure how to fix this, any help is appreciated. (I'm pretty new to linux). Also, I used to have fedora 9, and i had an option to boot fedora or 'other', which is windows. How do I go about setting up something similar in this case? EDIT: Also, when I type root, it tells me that the partition (hd2,0) (i assume the one i installed FC10: 3rd hdd, first partition) is an unspecified file system ... I think something happened to grub when it removed my old partition with FC9...

It sounds like you may have upgrade-installed from Fedora 9. Anyway, it happens often enough. I agree with your desire to manually boot the system from that grub> prompt, but you can't just enter "boot"

I will speculate that since you tried to use a cd this is your problem. You will need either a dvd or usb stick in order to get started. Check the faq section as well as the how-tos for more info.

It is refusing to boot, and dropping me to the "grub>" prompt when started. I can get it to recognize the multiboot kernel and module, and it will try to start booting, but it hangs almost immediately. These are the commands I'm entering and their results: grub> find /boot/grub/stage1 (hd1,0,a) (hd2,0,a) (hd4,0,a) grub> root (hd1,0,a) grub> kernel /platform/i86pc/multiboot kernel/unix [Multiboot-elf, <0x1000000:0x141eb:0x128f5>, shtab=0x1027258, entry=0x1000000] grub> module /platform/i86pc/boot_archive [Multiboot-module @ 0x1034000, 0x5ed3800 bytes] grub> boot After I issue the boot command, the terminal tries to clear, the cursor goes back to top-left, and I see this on the top line: eric_138889-08 32-bit and then the whole system hangs. It's been long enough since I've poked Solaris that I have no idea what to do next to try and get this beast booted - can anyone give me some advice on where to go / what to try next? solaris grub x86 share|improve this question edited Dec 26 '12 at 17:57 asked Dec 26 '12 at 14:58 John 6,85511325 1 Is recovering from backup an option? Because you could spend a lot of time poking at this, only to find that the actual data you care about could also be corrupted. –mfinni Dec 26 '12 at 15:13 Recovering is an option, but we're trying to not have to do that - because this is the backup server. There's not much "data" on the system that we need to recover so much as there are settings, but recovering it would be difficult to say the least. Drat that chicken-egg thing... –John Dec 26 '12 at 15:15 1 Process-wise, you need to make recovery of this system easier, if that's currently a sticking point. If you are ever in a DR situation offsite, this will be the first thing that you're doing and everything else depends on it going smoothly. What's the
