GRUB systems fails to boot |
|
|
|
|
A lot of upgrades from ESX 3.0 to ESX 3.01 result in a GRUB message at boot up.
First of all if you have this problem try to remove all the SAN Storage and do the upgrade for a second time. This solution worked on 4 of 5 hosts.
The solution for the last host was a bit more complicated:
Download the inside boot CD http://www.inside-security.de/insert.html
 |
Boot the system with the CD |
 |
Right click on the window and start a Terminal Session-Aterm - Superuser |
 |
mount the root partition in my case: mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
If you unsure what device is your root partition use fdisk -l |
 |
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot |
