Error 8: Kernel Must Be Loaded Before Booting In Linux
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" as you found out. You must do that after a couple of other commands (e.g., root, kernel, and initrd). For example, starting with the root command at the grub> prompt... Code: grub> root (hdx,y) You change x & y to the drive & partition of your boot partition where the kernels, init

First thing is to briefly explain how Grub loads itself and the kernel. GRUB in a nutshell When the server is powered on, the server's BIOS finds the primary bootable device and loads the initial bootstrap program from the master boot record (MBR), then transfers control to Grub Stage 1. Stage 1 resides in the MBR and because it is very small code, it basically loads the next Stage from a defined location on the disk within the first 1024 cylinders. Stage 1 can load Stage 2 directly, but it's normally set up to load Stage 1.5. Grub Stage 1.5 is located in the first 30 kilobytes of hard disk immediately following the MBR and before the first partition. Stage 1.5 can contain any drivers needed and it then loads Stage 2. Stage 2 will then load the default configuration file and any other modules needed. These files are located on a SLES server in the /boot/grub/ directory. Once Grub has loaded, it normally pres
and I am working as a Solaris administrator with one of the leading company. I have experienced the above issue with solaris x86 boxes where the server https://kksol.wordpress.com/2012/02/12/error-8-kernel-must-be-loaded-before-booting-in-solaris-10-x86/ is able to boot upto "grub" prompt and when you issue boot command http://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=17276 it will through the error message as "Error : Kernel must be loaded before booting" The following action plan explains you how to resolve the issue. 1)Find out your boot disk entries first grub>find /boot/grub/menu.lst or find /sbin/init Ex: I have 2 boot environments in this machine hence entries are as follows kernel must (hd0,0,a) (hd1,0) (hd1,0,a) 2. Issue the root command against your hard disk to know the type of the file system installed in it. Ex: grub>root (hd0,0,a) File system type is ufs , Partition type 0*82 3. Load the module for multiboot grub>kernel /platform/i86pc/multiboot 4. Load the module for boot archive. grub>module /platform/i86pc/boot_archive 5.grub>boot After completion of step 5 you will be able to login to server kernel must be , Cheers Krish Share this:TwitterFacebookLike this:Like Loading...

The alternate solution is as follows: 1. boot from cdrom and select the option 6 which is a single user mode. 2.If your root file system is svm or vxvm then proceed with unencapsulation and try running installgrub and update the boot-archive. 3. update the boot path in /boot/solaris/bootenv.rc and proceed with reboot Probabaly this could resolve your issue.

To debug try the following at the GRUB prompt and see what is returned:Code: Select allfind /boot/grub/stage1
find /grub/stage1You could also try booting from installation media in rescue mode to see if you may need to reinstall GRUB.
