installer and os-prober not finding Windows XP installation
I installed CentOS 7 on a Shuttle X27D box (dual-core Atom 330), and
so far it seems to work fine, but it didn't set up a Grub2 entry for
the existing Windows XP installation in the first partition (MBR).
Running os-prober generates no output.
fdisk shows that the NTFS partition is still present as /dev/sda1, and
still has the bootable flag set.
I added a menuentry for Windows to the end of

/etc/grub.d/09-xen for generating grub.cfg for hypervisor boot entries.
If this has already been done, please forgive me. However, if not, I''d like
to submit this as a mechanism for generating a bootable grub2 stanza for
hypervisors.
As the /etc/grub.d/* files rely on defaults in /etc/default/grub, I added
the following Xen specific variable:
GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN_DEFAULT="console=com1 115200,8n1 dom0_mem=512M
dom0_max_vcpus=1 dom0_vcpus_pin=true

Dual boot C7 with Window 10
I have a laptop with windows 10.
I went into the Windows disk manager and shrunk the volume
to make room for C7. That worked.
I also changed the BIOS from secure boot to "both" (secure/legacy)
I installed C7, went fine. About the time it was done I realized I never
saw anything about "other" boot options (seems I saw that in the past).
Anyway sure enough, got done and C7

"update-grub" adds line to "multiboot"
Hello Xen folks,
I use Debian Squeeze. I want to passthrough PCI devices.
With the old stable Debian (grub legacy) i did not have problems.
I edit /etc/default/grub like:
quote:
GRUB_CMDLINE_XEN_DEFAULT="quiet xen-pciback.permissive xen-pciback.hide=(00:14.2)(01:05.1)"
I run "update-grub". Now i look at /boot/grub/grub.cfg:

Bug#603391: Workaround PyGrub issue
Confirmed this issue. To reproduce: Install a fresh Wheezy AMD64 guest
under Xen 4.1 (hypervirtualized, boot from the
debian-7.1.0-amd64-CD-1.iso). Use "entire disk" automatic layout for
partitioning, this creates /dev/xvda1 for / and /dev/xvda5 for swap.
It will create /boot/grub/grub.cfg with many references to
(/dev/xvda,msdos1) which works fine when the machine is booted

memdisk - grub2
I've been trying to use memdisk with grub2 to boot some iso images -( I've done this without any
problem with pxe )
There is a memdisk.mod in /boot/grub/ and I've seen some material talking about this, but no example
of a menu.
After trying countless permutations - Right now I have :
menuentry "Memtest-Plus 4.2" {
echo `hello`

Custom ISO
Hi All,
I am trying to make a customer ISO. When I run this command:

GRUB2 configuration for Xen 4 on Ubuntu Linux 10.04
Hello,
I have installed the Xen 4.1.1 and a working kernel 2.6.32.43 which supports
Xen on a Ubuntu Linux 10.04 LTS. However, I have never successfully booted
the Hypervisor and Dom0. The screen is always black after some kernel
messages rapidly go by. I think that I may pass the wrong parameters to the
kernel or Hypervisor with GRUB2.
Can any one share his/her working grub.cfg for GRUB2 with

PyGrub And Grub2 Submenus
I recently updated the kernel on an Ubuntu 11.04 PVM domU. The dom0 is an up
to date Debian Squeeze host (Xen 4.0.1). Attempting to start the domU after
this with xm create gives "Error: Boot loader didn''t return any data!". I
ran pygrub against the domU manually, I got the following:

Using memdisk with grub2 and a compressed iso
Hello,
I'm having a problem booting a compressed ISO image using memdisk via grub2 (version 2.02). The entry in my grub.cfg looks like:

When selected, this starts to boot and then fails with:

/boot as a btrfs subvolume
As of the latest updates to anaconda and grub2 for Fedora 18, it is now
possible to install with /boot as a btrfs subvolume. The way that grub2
is handling this is the "reach down" to the files it needs as if the
subvolume was a directory.
Is this OK?
At this point I am not worried about snapshots or any other
complexities. If the subvolume name is known. should grub2 be able to

Booting CentOS 6 with Grub from CentOS 7
I had CentOS 6 installed on an MBR hard disk. I converted the disk to
GPT (with UEFI) and installed CentOS 7 on a new partition.
CentOS 7 itself seems to work properly.
Grub from CentOS 7 automatically created an entry for CentOS 6, but I
get an error if I try to boot CentOS 6.
The menu entry is:
menuentry 'CentOS release 6.10 (Final) (on /dev/sda7)' --class
gnu-linux --class gnu
