Package: grub-pc Version: 1.98+20100804-14 Severity: important Hello,
on my computer, Windows 7 cannot be booted if grub2 is installed as
bootloader. Everytime when I choose Windows 7 in the boot menu, Windows
starts to boot and shows its animated boot logo, but after some time,
probably when normally the graphical login screen appears, the computer
reboots.
I have two harddisks in my computer, one IDE and one SATA. The first disk
(IDE) has the following partitioning and bootloader configuration:
/dev/sda1 active partition, 64 MB, ext3, Mountpoint /boot for Linux
/dev/sda2 25 GB, FAT32, old Windows 98 partition
/dev/sda3 100 MB, NTFS, system partition for Windows 7
/dev/sda4 250 GB, NTFS, installation partition for Windows 7
The bootloader is installed on /dev/sda1, not in the MBR of /dev/sda. The
MBR just contains the standard bootloader which simply boots the active
partition.
My grub2 entry for Windows 7 looks like this:
menuentry "Windows 7 (loader) (on /dev/sda3)" {
insmod part_msdos
insmod ntfs
set root='(hd0,msdos3)'
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set aa743df4743dc3bb
chainloader +1
}
This is not the same bug as #561154: Removing the line "search --no-floppy
--fs-uuid --set aa743df4743dc3bb" does not help.
The equivalent configuration (partitions, location of the bootloader and
menu entry) works fine with grub-legacy.
Regards
Christoph
