Description Richard Scott 2006-06-19 06:30:59 UTC

I've just made a cd with a grub bootloader and noticed the following for the "gentoo [ No FrameBuffer ]" option.

The config section in /boot/grub/grub.conf for that is as follows in the CD I've made:

title gentoo [ No FrameBuffer ]
kernel gentoo /boot/gentoo root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc  looptype=squashfs loop=/image.squashfs  cdroot
initrd /boot/gentoo.igz

It has an extra "gentoo" in the kernel line that I'm guessing needs to be removed as follows:

title gentoo [ No FrameBuffer ]
kernel /boot/gentoo root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc  looptype=squashfs loop=/image.squashfs  cdroot
initrd /boot/gentoo.igz

Thanks,

Richard.

I think you're the first person that I know of to actually use the grub support.  ;]

Fixed in CVS... it'll show up in the next catalyst release...
