Ubuntu Installation :: Drives From BIOS And Tried Putting GRUB On Both SSD And 1TB HDD

Mar 4, 2011

I'm having some issues getting Ubuntu to boot. I've installed it a bunch of times before, but dual booting and not. Right now though, I'm having issues installing it along with Windows 7, on separate hard drives. Here's my current configuration:

60GB SSD with windows 7
500GB HDD, NTFS, windows 7 data

I bought a 1TB HDD that I want Ubuntu on, but I only want Ubuntu to use 100 GB. I want the other 900GB for Windows 7. So, I put in the Ubuntu CD, chose to edit the partitions manually in the 1TB HDD, created a 100GB ext4 primary partition for linux and a 2GB swap partition, leaving the other 900GB unallocated. Ubuntu seemed to install fine, said it succeeded, and asked me to reboot. When I did, however, my computer boots straight into Windows (no GRUB screen at all). I've tried changing the boot priority to all three of my installed drives from BIOS and tried putting GRUB on both my SSD and 1TB HDD.

Ubuntu Installation :: Multi Booting On Two Drives - How To Edit Grub

Apr 7, 2010

I have two hard drives windows 7 is on one of them and Ubuntu 9.10 is on the other. Both drives are 320GB, but different models of drives by Seagate. Both drives are detected by the BIOS and both drives are detected by Windows, but only one drive is detected by Ubuntu during the installation process. I had to literally disconnect the Windows drive to get Ubuntu to recognize the drive I wanted it on. Now that Ubuntu is completely installed and a new Kernel has been downloaded and installed it finally recognizes both drives as existing.

There is some kind of problem with the Installer and the original Kernel that kept it from seeing the second drive. I will literally have to manually edit Grub to get it to boot the Windows drive. How do I edit Grub? and what kind of Grub command would do the trick? I searched for "multi-boot" and literally read them all, there was one thread about multi-boot on multi-drives, but it did not fit because the Installer recognized both drives with that thread. I have to change the boot order in the BIOS to get the drive to boot that I want currently.

Ubuntu Installation :: Booting With Grub With Multiple Hard Drives?

Jan 23, 2011

I have 3 hard drives installed to my system, 1TB, 2TB and 500GB drives with the following configuration:

ledi@ledi-ubuntu:~$ sudo parted /dev/sda print
Model: ATA SAMSUNG HD103UJ (scsi)
Disk /dev/sda: 1000GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: msdos

[Code]...

I can boot to the Ubuntu installation in the 2TB drive. My problem reversed when I reinstalled grub to one of the Ubuntu installations in the 1TB drive. I can boot to any of the OS's in the 1TB drive, but not to the Ubuntu in the 2TB drive. The error message is the same as above. I have no idea what am I doing wrong and I would be really grateful for any assistance.

Fedora Installation :: Configure Grub To Ended Up Messing Up MBRs Of Both Hard Drives

Aug 26, 2009

I currently have a clean installation of Windows on the Primary drive (13gbs) and I want to install Fedora 11 on the other (7gbs). Should I install grub on the Windows hard drive or will Windows hate on me for that? Earlier I tried installing grub on the slave with the Fedora system, but I had trouble configuring Grub in a way that it would understand and I ended up messing up the MBRs of both hard drives.

Ubuntu :: Unable To Enumerate USB Device On Port 4

Mar 4, 2010

Doing a dmesg I can see following lines

[ 130.876406] hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 4
[ 130.876453] usb 3-2: USB disconnect, address 6

[ 131.396382] hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 4

[code]....

That is what I have exactly pluged, the webcam on the top of my screen and an external mouse. Btw, I can plug USB devices with no problem, so I am skiping this error since long time ago, but I don't understand this message and I would love to do it.

Ubuntu Servers :: Getting Grub On Multiple Drives?

Jun 6, 2010

(tangent to my other thread "Karmic -> Lucid not booting"). I have four hard drives on a Lucid box, and (as it happens) the fourth drive is the boot and root. Could I also install grub on the other three (ext4) hard drives, keeping the same root? Will this disturb the data there? How would the machine decide which copy to use, anyway?

Ubuntu :: 10.04 Booting Slow - Unable To Enumerate USB Device To Port 1

Jul 16, 2010

Recently my Ubuntu 10.04 was booting slow and to figure out what was going wrong, I booted Ubuntu in text mode. There I found it was hanging on for 5-6 sec showing "unable to enumerate usb device to Port 1". I know it has something to do with Port1 / usb device, but could not understand and solve it.

Debian Hardware :: Unable To Enumerate USB Device

Jul 26, 2010

I noticed this message "hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 4" appear before the kernel says "no resume image found loading normal init" or something along these lines. Basically what I mean is, this message shows up whenever the kernel loads. So I checked if anything is logged in /var/log/messages (are messages like these logged???), did not find anything in the log.

I then used this command, which showed up the message I was looking for.
dmesg | grep -i enumerate [    2.379748] hub 1-0:1.0: unable to enumerate USB device on port 4

My USB mouse and other USB hard drives are working fine, without any problem. I just wanted to know if this is some kind of bug. I did some search I found this link , [URL], where this kind of bug was discussed. Looks like they closed the bug.

here is my lspci output:

After installation I boot a few times and used F15 on my Dell Inspiron 1564. But now I can't boot anymore. The screen just shows "unable to enumerate USB device on Port 4" and just hangs there with a blinking cursor below that line. I have no USB devices attached though.

Slackware :: Unable To Enumerate USB Device On Port 5

Jul 16, 2011

I'm running Slackware 13.37 64 bit. I run it on an HP2945SE AMD Turion x2. I am getting an error during boot up unable to enumerate USB device on port 5. It filters throughout the rest of the boot up commands / results. It doesn't seem to matter if things are plugged up to the USB ports or not. Also it doesn't seem to affect anything on the computer. Its just irritating.

CentOS 5 :: Grub On DOMU Will Not See Any Drives

Apr 25, 2009

I have a problem with a VM running Centos 5.3 on a Centos 5.2 hypervisor. Any kernel install makes the system unbootable and I have to copy an old /boot directory to get it to boot again. After some investigation I found that grub was always failing. These are the partitions I have. xvda is the OS virtual drive. xvda1 is the /boot partitition and xvda2 is the LVM partition. A standard default install.

cat /proc/partitions

Apparently, this file could be suspect. But it seems to be OK according to what I have read.
cat /boot/grub/device.map

Startup script. I have a problem with an error on system boot:

This error is continuous, filling up my system logs. It is also a known kernel bug. I found a solution here: [URL] but it is only good after I boot. I have tried to make a startup script in /etc/init.d in the following manner.

sudo mkdir /opt/usb/

#!/bin/bash
# chkconfig: 345 91 19

cd ~

Ubuntu :: Force Grub To Prefer UUID - Drives Attached Fail

Mar 26, 2010

Is there something special I have to do to get grub to use UUID's? I am putting a couple of extra drives into a 9.10 system (default installation) with a SCSI drive for the OS. That SCSI drive was sda when I built the machine but of course gets bumped when I add these other drives. The fstab file contains UUID's. All attempts to boot with the other drives attached fail.

Server :: GRUB Read Error After Adding SATA Drives?

Apr 2, 2010

I installed debian 5.0.4 server on a PC that has both IDE and SATA controllers. I used an IDE HD to install the OS. The input device was a USB DVD unit. The IDE drive showed as /dev/hda and the 4 SATA HDs showed as /dev/sda1, /dev/sda2, /dev/sda3 and /dev/sda4. After the OS was installed the reboot started which brought up an error: GRUB GRUB Read Error

I then disconnected the SATA HDs and rebooted successfully. So no PROBLEMS with just the IDE drive connected, grub works fine. If I reconnect the SATA HDs though grub fails with:

GRUB GRUB Read Error

The problem originated when the installation got to the GRUB implementation. Here the installer engine asked me If I wanted GRUB to be installed on the MBR, to which I said YES. The installer had listed the IDE drive (/dev/hda) before the SATA drives (/dev/sda, /dev/sdb, /dev/sdc, /dev/sdd). After the installation finished and the machine was restarted, BIOS looked at the SATA drives first could not find the grub stages and it displayed an "Read Error".

After realising what was happening I looked at the BIOS settings to see if the HD booting sequence could be altered. The BIOS did indeed list the 4 SATA drives first and the IDE HD last. BUT it would not let me alter the booting sequence. So I was stuck with what the BIOS doing. So I decided I take the IDE drive out and create a 20G partition on the first SATA to accommodate the OS. So now everything works OK.

Ubuntu Servers :: RAID-1 OS Drives - Setting Up A Backup Procedure For The OS Drives

Jan 18, 2010

I'm breaking into the OS drive side with RAID-1 now. I have my server set up with a pair of 80 GB drives, mirrored (RAID-1) and have been testing the fail-over and rebuild process. Works great physically failing out either drive. Great! My next quest is setting up a backup procedure for the OS drives, and I want to know how others are doing this.

Here's what I was thinking, and I'd love some feedback: Fail one of the disks out of the RAID-1, then image it to a file, saved on an external disk, using the dd command (if memory serves, it would be something like "sudo dd if=/dev/sda of=backupfilename.img") Then, re-add the failed disk back into the array. In the event I needed to roll back to one of those snapshots, I would just use the "dd" command to dump the image back on to an appropriate hard disk, boot to it, and rebuild the RAID-1 from that.

Does that sound like a good practice, or is there a better way? A couple notes: I do not have the luxury of a stack of extra disks, so I cannot just do the standard mirror breaks and keep the disks on-hand, and using something like a tape drive is also not an option.

Ubuntu Installation :: Grub Errors - More Than 1 Grub - The Change Does Not Appear In The Boot Up Menu

The first is I seem to have 3 GRUB installs. So whilst I update the one from my live session, the change does not appear in the boot up menu. I had installed 10.10 from a CD into a different partition (sda6), but that will not boot, so I have just deleted this and done another grub install and update. The kernel I am using has just been updated from 10.04 to 10.10 too, and it is this that I use and the Grub I have been working on (sda5).
