Eagle Server Installation Guide Linux Grub Information

Some PCs encounter problems seeing a boot menu after installing Eagle-Server. The following will help you restore your grub boot menu.

1. Open a Terminal Shell session 2. At the prompt, type su and press <Enter>. (There is a space between su and -) When prompted for a password, type cisco and press <Enter>. Your prompt should change to [root@Eagle-Server ~]#. You are now the root superuser. 3. Type grub (without parentheses) and press <Enter>. This will change the prompt to grub>.

4.

Type find /boot/grub/stage1 and press <Enter>. This will return the boot locations of your grub files. If multiple lines are returned it is a good bet that the first one is your original boot grub location. It will look something like: (hd0,1), where the 0 is the disk, and the 1 is the partition. Note: This find command can mislead you on the next step. The partition numbers given here are relative, where the root command wants the absolute partition number. You will need to subtract 1 from the partition numbers shown on this screen when you enter your disk and partition information in on the root command.

5. Type root (hd#,#) Enter the information that was returned from the find command in the previous step, remember to subtract 1 from the partition number (second number).

Type quit and press <Enter>. This will return you to the [root@Eagle-Server ~]# prompt. 8. Reboot the Server. 9. If the system boots to a grub> prompt, dont despairyou are almost there!
