I have just experienced this issue again (among others) trying to set up XP/Ubuntu 9.10 dual boot on a desktop (DFI mobo with nForce4 chipset, skt939 AMD X2 4400+, 320GB sda, 500GB sdb).
After sorting out my other issues, I again came to this bug, however the behaviour is quite different to my laptop (which is the system I've been referring to in my other posts). On the laptop; XP booted fine, but Ubuntu had the "error: device not found...". This time Ubuntu boots fine from Grub but Windows has the "error: device not found...". The same fix applies though: #1 above (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/403408/comments/1) works fine (except as noted previously, the line that needs editing is 174 in the latest version of the Grub mkconfig file). As I stated above, this workaround/fix survived my most recent kernel update (on the laptop), lets hope its fixed in the next Grub update. -- Grub 2 problem, error: no such device https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/403408 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
