[OpenIndiana-discuss] 151a8 boot problems

[Stefan Müller-Wilken]

Hi Predrag,

you mean simply use installgrub from the DVD? Or copy the files 'stage1' and 'stage2'  to my HD's /boot/grub?

Cheers
 Stefan

Hi Stefan,

not quiet sure, but I guess you have to:
a) boot from DVD (not USB)
b) import -f rpool
c) use stage1 and stage 2 files from that booted media (not sure if
/boot/grub/ is linked properly)
d) reboot

Just an idea.

Regards.
