Re: With grub.cfg Linux Kernel boot hangs

[Naresh Bhat]

Hi Vladimir,

1. I have downloaded GRUB from ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/grub/
2. No luck with debug=relocator option. Same thing is repeated.

When a kernel can boot with the following manual commands

grub> set debug=video
grub> insmod efi_gop
grub> linux (hd2,gpt2)/bzImage-2.6.32.28
grub> boot

Same set of commands if I put inside the grub.cfg file and try to
boot..the output is blank screen and hangs the machine!!!!

=========================================
set debug=video
insmod efi_gop

menuentry "Linux Kernel-2.6.32.28 (Single Image)" {
      linux (hd2,gpt2)/bzImage-2.6.32
}
==========================================

There must be something wrong with my grub.cfg file ???


Thanks
