Hi,

since grub is problem, is it possible that rpool mirror is 'damaged'?

zpool status -v rpool

Otherwise, I have no other idea.
Regards.

Hmmm... I've booted from DVD, switched to command line, mounted rpool and then 
diff'ed the stage1 and stage2 binaries. They are identical, so that can't be a 
problem.  But things are getting even weirder. I booted from DVD, then 
chain-booted into the HD installation, reinstalled boot loader via installgrub 
and rebooted. The server went into GRUB menu without a problem and did that 
again as l resetted from GRUB menu.

But getting into GRUB menu works only until I boot through into multi user for the first time. 
After that, any subsequent boot will end in "GRUB _" or "GRUB loading 
stage2...".

Huh??!

Cheers

Hi Predrag,

you mean simply use installgrub from the DVD? Or copy the files 'stage1' and 
'stage2'  to my HD's /boot/grub?

Cheers

Yes, all from DVD (I had problem with outdated grub structure on USB
image, check "OI 1.8 /dev: need help (missing feature for read
'org.illumos:lz4_compress')" discussion - that was completely another
problem, but USB image didn't worked).

Regards.

Dear all,

I've got a serious booting problem with one of my 151a8 Proliants after 
switching my root pool mirror with its 2 disksfrom 73GB disks to 1TB disks. 
Although I've used installgrub to write stage1 and stage2 to each of the two 
disks using ...

# installgrub /boot/grub/stage1 /boot/grub/stage2 /dev/rdsk/c3t0d0s0
# installgrub /boot/grub/stage1 /boot/grub/stage2 /dev/rdsk/c3t1d0s0

... the machine will blank the screen after booting and stop with "GRUB" and a blinking 
cursor. Using the text installer CD and then using "Boot from harddisk" will work. 
Anything I can do to bring the machine back to normal?

Cheers
   Stefan

Hi Stefan,

not quiet sure, but I guess you have to:
a) boot from DVD (not USB)
b) import -f rpool
c) use stage1 and stage 2 files from that booted media (not sure if
/boot/grub/ is linked properly)
d) reboot

Just an idea.

Regards.
