neobyte Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I created a multipass with a few tools today but I believe I am missing some part of my grub config. As of right now, every tool I have on the multipass (with the exception of Kon-boot and memtest) boots, but then gives me some kind of error related to lacking a root and then drops me into a busybox shell. On the debian/ubuntu systems, I get this: (initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system This is my current menu.lst file: color red/black white/red timeout 120 title BackTrack 5 root(hd1,0) kernel /bt5/casper/vmlinuz vga=0x317 ramdisk_size=6666 root=/dev/ram0 rw quiet file=/bt5/preseed/custom.seed boot=casper text splash vga=791-- initrd=/bt5/casper/initrd.gz boot title Tails root(hd0,0) kernel /tails-i386-0.9/live/vmlinuz ramdisk_size=100000 root=/dev/ram0 rw quiet rootdelay=120 initrd=/tails-i386-0.9/live/initrd.img title Knoppix root(hd1,0) kernel /knoppix6.7.1/boot/isolinux/linux vga=0x317 ramdisk_size=100000 lang=en vt.default_utf8=0 apm=power-off video=640x480 initrd=minirt.gz nomce libata.force=noncq hpsa.hpsa_allow_any=1 loglevel=1 tz=localtime adriane initrd=/knoppix6.7.1/boot/isolinux/minirt.gz title Knoppix64 root(hd1,0) kernel /knoppix6.7.1/boot/isolinux/linux64 PMEDIA=usbflash vga=0x317 ramdisk_size=100000 lang=en vt.default_utf8=0 apm=power-off nomce libata.force=noncq hpsa.hpsa_allow_any=1 loglevel=1 tz=localtime adrian initrd=/knoppix6.7.1/boot/isolinux/minirt.gz title Kon-Boot map --mem /FD0-konboot-v1.1-2in1.img (fd0) map --hook chainloader (fd0)+1 map (hd1) (hd0) map --hook rootnoverify (fd0) title Memtest kernel /bt5/isolinux/memtest I know it's a bit of a mess, but I've been trying everything I can think of to get this to work.

SteveSi Posted September 13, 2012 Share Posted September 13, 2012 try root (hd0,0) or if you have a 2012 grldr chenall version, use root (bd) where bd=boot device see rmprepusb website for lots of multiboot grub4dos tutorials/menus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
