Bug#571035: [squeeze alpha1] installationsreport: grub2: machine doesn't boot
Package: installation-reports
Installation on Toshiba Satellite lowmem laptop:
installation went without bigger problems so far, but machine doesn't
boot into the new system. I chose to install grub2.
Booting Debian GNU/Linux with 2.6.32-trunk-486
Loading Linux 2.6.32-trunk-486 ...
Loading initial ramdisk ...
appears on the screen, then the system stopps.
Sometimes I get another screen:
Decompressing Linux... Parsing ELF... done.
Booting the kernel.
and then the system stopps here.
Menu entry in grub.cfg is:
insmod ext2
set root: (hd0,1)
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set [UUID]
echo Loading Linux 2.6.32-trunk-486 ...
linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-trunk-486 root=UUID=[UUID] ro all_generic_ide quiet
echo Loading initial ramdisk ...
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-trunk-486
which seems correct (device is hda1, filesystem is ext2, filenames are correct).
A kernel issue?
The installer kernel boots correct, which is an 2.6.30-486.
Greetings
Holger
