Exactly same situation here. As a workaround: 1. downgrade to _beta0 2. grub2-install 3) upgrade back to _beta1 It seems that the "linux" command is broken in beta1. Using "linux16" instead of "linux" works here. (In reply to comment #1) > Exactly same situation here. > > As a workaround: > 1. downgrade to _beta0 > 2. grub2-install > 3) upgrade back to _beta1 This workaround worked for me (I forgot to mention this when writing the report). Thanks anyway :) Same with efi-64 platform I don't seem to be having this problem myself with the pc platform. Could someone experiencing the problem report it upstream please? http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub-bugs.html (In reply to comment #2) > It seems that the "linux" command is broken in beta1. > Using "linux16" instead of "linux" works here. Thanks, that fixed it for me, too. Beta1 is b0rked. I am also affected (In reply to comment #1) > Exactly same situation here. > > As a workaround: > 1. downgrade to _beta0 > 2. grub2-install > 3) upgrade back to _beta1 As I understend I should not call grub2-install for beta1?

That's exactly the point. (In reply to comment #8) > (In reply to comment #7) > > As I understend I should not call grub2-install for beta1? > > That's exactly the point. There is really no point in upgrading back to beta1 in that case. Again, this issue is much more likely to be resolved if someone would work with the upstream developers. I can't produce the problem, so I won't be able to perform any testing they may request. (In reply to comment #8) > That's exactly the point. So it means that an old bootloader will be used with new scripts? I expect same problem on and64 system. linux16 command fixes the issue for me. I can confirm this bug on x86_64 in UEFI mode, downgrading to beta0 solved the issue. So who is up to give a report to upstream? (In reply to comment #12) > So who is up to give a report to upstream? BTW, could you clarify, is it's an official grub builds, because I cannot find it on GNU FTP server: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/grub/ ? Same problem here. More info. I have GPT partition table on PC platform with hibrid MBR for Windows shit: $ sudo gdisk /dev/sda GPT fdisk (gdisk) version 0.6.13 Partition table scan: MBR: hybrid BSD: not present APM: not present GPT: present Found valid GPT with hybrid MBR; using GPT.

It is an alpha/beta release and U can find here: ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/grub/ Workaround: build kernel with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE (In reply to comment #16) > Workaround: build kernel with CONFIG_RELOCATABLE doesn't work here.

GPT, I am using UEFI/GPT/GRUB2 setups. And this is reproduced on two amd64 systems.

(In reply to comment #21) > That's right. I inspect the differences between beta0 and beta1. Your grub2 setup was works well with beta0? yes it does. Did you find any meaningful changes? (In reply to comment #23) > yes it does. Did you find any meaningful changes? I don't think so.(In reply to comment #23) > yes it does. Did you find any meaningful changes? I don't think so. Can U please try the trunk version of grub2? I see some relevant commits in trunk: ---------------------------------------------------------- 2012-03-07 Vladimir Serbinenko <phcoder@gmail.com> * grub-core/loader/i386/linux.c (prot_init_space): New variable. (allocate_pages): Improve dprintf. (grub_cmd_linux): Fill prot_init_space. Fix improper usage of code32_start. Fill code32_start and kernel_alignment in params. (grub_cmd_initrd): Use prot_init_space. ---------------------------------------------------------- and: ---------------------------------------------------------- 2012-03-10 Vladimir Serbinenko <phcoder@gmail.com> * grub-core/loader/efi/chainloader.c (grub_cmd_chainloader): Use "out of memory" error messagge. ---------------------------------------------------------- =grub-9999 works for me now. Mike, did you backport the fixes or removed the version in question? Beta 2 is now in the tree. Please test. (In reply to comment #27) > Beta 2 is now in the tree. Please test. Beta 2 solved the issue for me. Did the grub2-install and rebooted with no problems at all. Thanks. If anyone else still experiences this bug with beta 2, please speak up and I will reopen this. (In reply to comment #26) this version isn't keyworded, so fixes upstream qualify as fixed here |
After upgrading sys-boot/grub from 2.00_beta0 to 2.00_beta1, and running `grub2-install /dev/sda', the computer reboots every time after printing `Loading Linux x.x.x-gentoo' and before any boot message is printed by the kernel. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge '=sys-boot/grub-2.00_beta1' 2. grub2-install /dev/sda 3. reboot Actual Results: The computer keeps rebooting after printing `Loading Linux x.x.x-gentoo' and before any boot message is printed by the kernel. Expected Results: The specified kernel should be booted as usual. The computer boots as expected if nothing else is done except for the upgrade of sys-boot/grub from 2.00_beta0 to 2.00_beta1, or only `grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg' is run. *** Following is
