Debian :: Grub Load Error "Grub Loading Stage1.5. Grub Loading, Please Wait... Error 15"
May 23, 2010When I try and boot my Debian computer I get the messages: Grub Loading stage1.5. Grub loading, please wait... Error 15 Is there any way of recovering from this - or is it simply a fresh install? I was attempting an upgrade from Lenny to Squeeze and despite a few hurdles it looked like it was all happening. Got the new kernel loading, and the new grub. It looked as though grub2 was working so I ran the grub-remove-legacy-support command (something like that) and now my computer won't boot grub or Linux.
I'm assuming the MBR on my harddrive is lost, however I don't know what state the partition is in. I'm guessing that maybe this has been lost as well. I tried a few tools from the Ultimate Boot CD but nothing here was able to re-install my grub or boot from any partition or even mount my file-system. I'm fearing the worst but would like it confirmed before I blow it all away with a new install.
Ubuntu :: Grub Loading - Wait Error 22
Apr 30, 2011I applied all updates to my Kubuntu 10.04 installation, and shutdown and went to bed. Booted up this morning and found:
[code]...
This error is returned if the module load command is used before loading a Multiboot kernel. It only makes sense in this case anyway, as GRUB has no idea how to communicate the presence of location of such modules to a non-Multiboot-aware kernel. lets re-install GRUB. So I booted up my live CD, and ran:
sudo GRUB
find /boot/grub/stage1
root (hd0,0)
setup (hd0)
quit
sudo shutdown -r now
Same error. So I started looking around, and most complaints of this particular error seem to be dual boot environments, which I found rather odd, as I have never dual booted this machine.....
Ubuntu Servers :: "GRUB Loading, Please Wait.... Error 15" - Drive Being Sde And Not Sda?
Apr 4, 2010I am trying to set-up a home server using Ubuntu 9.10 server edition. My PC has 4 x 500Gb SATA drives which I will use for storage. I also have a 80Gb IDE drive which I want to install OS on. During installation the 80Gb IDE drive shows as sde. When doing the install I chose to install to whole disk (sde), all appears to go well. When I reboot all I get is "GRUB loading, please wait.... Error 15" Is the problem caused by my drive being sde and not sda? I have also tried partitioning sde as /. /boot and swap, still get Error 15.

Sep 20, 2010I'm getting a funny error after trying to add a new internal hard drive to my computer. After adding the new drive to the "Slave" slot GRUB will not load properly and gives me the following error Grub Loading, Please Wait Error 17 I've checked in my BIOS and the "Master" drive is still the one where grub is loaded. When I unplug the new drive the problem disappears and I can load Grub normally. I've searched the threads, but couldn't find a similar problem, or a problem that could be applied to mine. I've also tried loading the live CD, but my internal CD drive is broken, and the external one I have doesn't seem to recognized during boot time.

Feb 21, 2010i am using a RAID 1 with ubuntu 9.04. I tried to upgrade to 9.10. Total failure. Fed up and I tried to reload 9.04 onto RAID with previous "Ubuntu 9.04 Alternate Disk". Again no luck. I decide to load 9.10 on a single hard drive without using the second HD. I inactivated the second HD. Loading 9.10 is ok. When it asked me reboot I am getting the "GRUB loading, please wait.... Error 22". This is purely a Ubuntu dedicated computer, no windows in it.

General :: Grub Loading Stage 1.5 Error 21 Win7 / OpenSUSE
Jul 28, 2011A few days ago I installed openSUSE 11.4 on a 1TB HP external hard drive. I have some very important files for school and personal work on my main hard drive, running windows 7, so I made sure the installation only affected my external hard drive. With the external hard drive plugged in it boots just fine but when it is un-plugged it says Grub loading stage 1.5. Error 21 and it won't do anything. This kind of pisses me off because there were no warnings and nothing was supposed to happen to my main hard drive. But this has already happened and now I want to know if there is any way I could fix it so I can boot windows 7 normally and still boot openSUSE with the external hard drive plugged in.

Server :: Grub Not Loading 'GRUB' Error
Oct 4, 2009I have an Ubuntu Jaunty server with 4 x 1 TB Hitachi SATA Hard drives and a 4GB IDE Flash Drive. I installed the root file system to the IDE Flash Drive and setup the 4 x 1 TB Hard Drives as a RAID 5 for the home partition (I actually allotted 3 Gigs on each drive as swap space as well). My problem occurs however when I restart my computer after the server installation. Grub doesn't load fully and I am left with a "GRUB_" message on the screen.My root partition is ext3 and I have also tried the same configuration with a boot partition as well on the IDE drive to no avail.

Feb 21, 2010I been running both OS's for a few months now with no major problems besides wireless internet issues. Today, however, as I go to boot my laptop up, the Dell logo loads with the F2 and F12 boot and setup options which both work. Directly after that though I get the message "GRUB loading. Symbol '?' not found. Aborted. Press any key to Exit." then it repeats when I push a key, and then it tells me to press F1 to retry, F2 to go to setup, or F5 to run diagnostics. It passes all the tests in diagnostics. I've tried booting off of the ubuntu cd I used to load it initially with no luck. So I'm stuck at either that error message or in setup but I can't go any further, and it does not change anything when I tried to boot from the cd.

General :: Gentoo System Keeps Crashing Every 6 Hours?
Jul 12, 2010I was installing "wine" last night and since I knew it was going to take a while I closed the lid of the laptop and turned it upside down on the floor. (I always turn the laptop upside down when not using it otherwise might overheat)When I woke up this morning roughly 8 hours after I went to sleep the machine was turned off.Using the "last -x | grep shutdown | head -1" it stated that it went down at roughly 6 hours from when I went to sleep.The program I was installing got finished installing but I never set up an auto-shutdown program or anything of the sort.If this isn't a problem with linux then its a problem with my bios. If its a problem with my bios I will just have to live with it because my bios is locked. /var/log/messages says this:

View 4 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: System Freezes (Sometimes) At 'Grub Loading Stage 2'
Oct 16, 2009I'm using Arch with the latest updates and I'm pretty sure this is a software problem.Basically about one out of five times my system freezes at "Grub Loading Stage 2". Whenever this happens, I usually just reset my box with the reset button and it will boot up just fine the next time.I originally put it down to being a defect in my hard drive which is probably three years old now at least. However, last week I bought a brand new 1.5TB drive. I removed my old drive and am using only my new one. Same problem.I Googled for this problem and found a bunch of posts with the same issue as I'm having, yet all of those issues are with people that dual boot with Windows. I don't. I only have Arch and no other OS on my system. I then tried reinstalling Grub and that doesn't seem to have solved it.I'm hoping someone can help me out with this. I hope it's not a hardware problem. Any help is VERY appreciated as this problem makes me worry that something worse is going on.

Red Hat / Fedora :: GRUB Error 21 Loading Stage 1
Mar 27, 2010My laptop is running Fedora 12. I installed BackTrack 4 onto an external USB hard drive using a LiveCD. Now when I boot my laptop. I get this: GRUB Loading stage1.5. GRUB loading, wait Error 21. I never touched anything with my internal drive. When I was reviewing what partitions the installer was going to format, the swap partition for my internal drive (Fedora) was set to be formatted even though I did not specify this. Fedora never used to show GRUB loading at all. Screen was blank until Fedora starting loading. Maybe this means that this is a copy of GRUB from my BackTrack disc? I ran 'fdisk' to look for anything suspicious and under /dev/sda1 (internal drive, boot partition) it says "Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary."

Mar 19, 2010I have a CLEVO laptop and it currently has Windows 7 installed. I now want to create a separate partition to install Ubunutu 9.10 64bit. I attempted to install this and the install part worked fine but as soon as I rebooted all I seem to be getting after the BIOS is 'grub loading'. I get no other error messages and am stumped on what the problem is. It also meant I couldnt load windows either but I fixed this by loading the windows cd, running repair and then fixing the MBR which another thread mentioned. Once this was done windows loading up ok. I have checked nearly every setting and it has made no difference. I tried reinstalling 9.10 but came up with the same problem. I am not sure what I did in Windows may have caused it. I have a 320gb drive and I shrunk it using disk management as I know the ubuntu will see this free space and install the OS onto it. Should I have left this and let 9.10 create some space automatically during install?

Ubuntu Installation :: Grub Loading Error When Install 9.10?
Jan 8, 2010I went through the procedure to install Ubuntu 9.10 alongside Windows XP. The installation completed without complaint. But when I reboot the PC I get the error message "Grub loading error: no such partition...". and the keyboard is dead. I am using a Sony vaio PCG-FR215H laptop on which I have fitted new HDD and CD-drive. I carried out the installation by first booting up a live version of Ubuntu on a USB thumb drive and then clicking on the 'install Ubuntu' icon on the Live Ubuntu desktop. (I coudn't use a Live CD to install as this fails for some reason). I regained use of Windows XP on the PC by booting with a Windows 95 boot floppy and typing "fdisk /mbr". So, does anyone know what might have cased this grub error? Also, are there ways to try and fix the problem manually. I.e. can I get a copy of good versions of the files that are likely corrupted and then replace the stuff that I will have written over when I did the "fdisk /mbr"?

View 2 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Grub Loading Then Get Dumped - Error (No Such Device)
Mar 13, 2010When I boot I briefly see 'Grub loading...' then I get dumped in 'sh:grub>'.
I can then boot up manually:
linux (hd0,1)/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda1
initrd (hd0,1)/initrd.img
boot
I'm very new at this, so all my attempts at correcting it has been through reading posts turned up by google searches. Previously, I was dumped at the grub_rescue> prompt (have another thread about that, but I think this is a new issue, so I'm hoping making a new thread won't bring any mod's wrath down on my head), but that seemed to solve itself through no influence of mine...
What I've tried to solve the 'sh:grub>' issue:
In /etc/default/grub:
I tried disabling quiet splash, in hopes there would be some lines that would give me a clue as to what is going on, but it jumps directly from Grub loading to sh:grub>
I tried commenting out Grub_Hidden_Timeout and setting it to a positive integer. I tried uncommenting GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true
In /etc/grub.d/10_linux:
I tried commenting out 'if [ -n ${have_grubenv} ]; then save_env recordfail; fi'
Then I tried typing 'search -f /boot/grub/grub.cfg' at the sh:grub> prompt and got 'error: no such device: /boot/grub/grub.cfg' which I guess meant all my previous attempts were void as grub couldn't even find grub.cfg. I've tried to reinstall grub with 'grub-install --recheck /dev/sda'. Then I found this thread and tried out "grub-setup -r '(hd0,1)' /dev/sda", hoping it would point to my grub.cfg as well. No such luck.
Ubuntu Installation :: No Boot Up - Getting Grub Loading Error 2 Message?
May 21, 2010I have just installed Lucid Lynx as after a live run of it I thought it was about time to upgrade. Everything ran smoothly in the live version so I backed up my files and installed it. When I went to boot I get this -
Grub loading, please wait ...
Error 2
The strange thing is it seems to be specific to the computer. I have an older, lower spaced desktop, computer that I tried the hard drive in and it worked fine. Problem is its too low spaced for what I want so it seems the install went ok but its something with the computer? How I would be able to boot into the install?
Ubuntu :: OS Uninstalled - Loading Grub (Error 15) File Not Found
Jul 11, 2010I just (basically) completely uninstalled my OS by accident. In synaptic package manager I selected to completely remove volume control (which had been going haywire for god knows what reason) with intent to immediately reinstall. I didn't put 2 and 2 together when it said it'd remove all related files including the kernel... hal... restricted drivers... everything got uninstalled. Network manager crashed...
I decided to try my luck with restarting (what was left) of the system. Now I'm looking at a boot screen of:
loading grub...
error 15: file not found.
Did I have to just make a boot disc and reinstall the os? or can I just "put the pieces back together" as it were and reinstall with a 'sudo aptitude update' once I get network up again?
