 grub2 and ntpasswd from isoSo I'm using grub2 to boot from an iso on a usb disk.
I get System Rescue CD to work great, but ntpasswd does not. It seems that grub 1 supports multiple initrd images concatenated together, but grub2 doesn't. This is what I've tried: Code: menuentry "System Rescue CD NTPASSWD" { loopback loop $isofullpathname linux (loop)/ntpasswd/vmlinuz rw initrd (loop)/ntpasswd/initrd.cgz initrd (loop)/ntpasswd/scsi.cgz } This does boot and run ntpasswd, but the scsi device drivers are missing. http://en.gentoo-wiki.com/wiki/Initramf ... _initramfs seems to imply that this is possible, but I can't find a grub2 syntax for it. Grub 1 per Gentoo-wiki Code: title=Gentoo Linux 2.6.27-r8 with initramfs (hd0,0) root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/kernel-2.6.27-gentoo-r8 initrd /boot/first-initramfs.cpio.gz initrd /boot/second-initramfs.cpio.gz initrd /boot/third-initramfs.cpio.gz Any ideas? |

Re: grub2 and ntpasswd from iso I filed a feature request to have grub2 support this like grub-legacy does. It has been added to the trunk code for a later release.

I wonder about the removed option in GRUB2. Gernot |
