Grub «Error 11: Unrecognized device string»

About a week ago when I restarted my computer I got the following error when grub tried to boot.

b4643e8b-619f-4bf6-8e4e-0d610f081685 is the UUID of my /boot partition.

This is my menu.lst

does anybody have any idea why this happened?

Re: Grub «Error 11: Unrecognized device string»

Hi, I got the same today after automatic updates were installed, for some reason kernel 2.6.28-15 64bit was installed while this was already done a few weeks ago by a previous update.
So that wasn’t changed.
But after the update the system rebooted resulting in «Error 11: Unrecognized device string».
Fortunately I could boot my 32bit Ubuntu partition and from there examined menu.lst..
See below the differences between the old and the new menu.lst:

title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.28-15-generic
root bcce5ca8-c31c-4ac4-820f-5f89a3679f6e
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-15-generic root=UUID=bcce5ca8-c31c-4ac4-820f-5f89a3679f6e ro quiet splash
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.28-15-generic

title Ubuntu 9.04, kernel 2.6.28-15-generic
uuid bcce5ca8-c31c-4ac4-820f-5f89a3679f6e
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.28-15-generic root=UUID=bcce5ca8-c31c-4ac4-820f-5f89a3679f6e ro quiet splash
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.28-15-generic
quiet

Apart from the title and the quit at the end they are the same.

After overwriting my «new» menu.lst with the one before the update the problem was solved.
It looks like the change in the title to «Debian GNU/Linux» caused the problem..
I still wonder why a kernel-update was presented while I had that kernel already in use from a previous automatic update.

Re: Grub «Error 11: Unrecognized device string»

The difference is root vs UUID.
The entry is
root (hdx,y)
or
uuid UUIDnumber

It will not work with
root UUIDnumber

Re: Grub «Error 11: Unrecognized device string»

The difference is root vs UUID.
The entry is
root (hdx,y)
or
uuid UUIDnumber

Thanks Oldfred, that explained the issue.

Re: Grub «Error 11: Unrecognized device string»

I’ve apparently gotten the same problem. It’s 4 in the morning, so I want to make absolutely sure that I don’t implode the system by putting in the wrong (hdX,Y) format.

I dual boot Vista and currently 9.04, and am running on the 9.04 live CD now. Vista boots fine, but since I last logged into Ubuntu a week or two ago, got the error, but decided just to sit on it until 9.10 came out and get all repair and update stuff settled in one go.

Here is my Menu.lst

Seeing any other problem so far’s result, I think I need to change the relevant parts of menu.lst to:

title Ubuntu 9.04, memtest86+
root hd(0,1)
kernel /boot/memtest86+.bin
quiet
—-

But I’d much rather know than just think. That one sda5 throws me; that maybe the memtest86+ or recovery mode needs to be hd(0,4), so before I pull the trigger, I’ll sleep on it and hope for an answer.

GRUB Error 11: Unrecognized Device String

This just popped out of nowhere. i tried reinstalling GRUB with a livecd but that didn’t work. This is on a fresh install from last night. This morning just rebooted and BAM. The Windows option still works though. rolleyes:

Heres my menu.lst

Re: GRUB Error 11: Unrecognized Device String

The kernel and root must be in the same line
Wrong:
kernel /boot/vmlinuz26
root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/a9341d88-bf3b-4dfe-a46d-46c38b2c2224 ro

Right:
kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/a9341d88-bf3b-4dfe-a46d-46c38b2c2224 ro

Press «e» in your grub screen on any one

Go to the root line and press «e»

Go to its begining and type kernel /boot/vmlinuz26

Go to the previous line («The one with the kernel in it»)

Press «d» to delete it

Press «b» to boot

When your install boots, open the /boot/grub/menu.lst and delete the line break between the kernel and root line. Save the file.

enjoy

I suppose this will help:

I changed it to just

Did you get the same error message? It helps us help you if you report the error messages exactly. It is almost the only information we have to try to figure out what is wrong.

The output of»sudo blkid» might be useful too so we can double check that things are actually where you think they are.

The output of»cat /boot/grub/device.map» would also be good to see.

Hi, Yes, it always gave me the same error.

I am no good at this, but grub counts hd0,0 as #1, and hd0,1 as #2, and so on, right?
So if you have antix on sda6, it should be hd0,7.

Just asking.
sorry, but I have no idea about the xp problem.

Kubuntu 8.04. Неожиданно обнаружилась проблема (случайно кликнул по строке recovery mode в загр. меню). При заходе в recovery mode получаю: GRUB Error 11: Unrecognized Device String.
Как я понимаю device string это UUID и как можно видеть в моем menu.lst — в нормальном режиме и в рекавери UUID ОДИНАКОВЫЙ, но в нормальном режиме никаких проблем НЕТ, загружаюсь превосходно в систему, почему же в recovery GRUB не узнает device string??? Никак не могу докопаться с чем может быть связано. Подскажите пожалуста если кто знает.

А может быть, что все это из-за не правильной конфигурации xorg.conf.failsafe? Были проблемки с видео, но в «нормальном» режиме я их решил отредактировав xorg.conf, а xorg.conf.failsafe я не трогал. Может тоже надо???

А просто ты не пробовал ставить девайс? т.е. не через UUID, а напрямую…

xorg.conf.failsafe как и вообще xorg тут не причем, он поднимается черти где + в рековере он вообще не стартует, если я все правильно помню.  ;)

эта ошибка возникает когда неправильный синтаксис файла menu.lst
если в него вглядеться, то видно quiet в пятой строчке, которого быть не должно.

Всем спасибо за участие! Проблема действительно оказалась в ошибках menu.lst, дело в том, что я как видно выше закоментировал строки что отвечают за запуск проверки памяти (думал, раз не пользуюсь то зачем это в меню…). Для загрузки в нормальном режиме этого действительно не надо, а вот при recovery mode этот тест памяти видать должен пройти (ну или эти строки играют какую-то роль для загрузки в recovery mode). В общем, пока обратно не разкоментировал те строки ничего не получалось.

ЗЫ: кстати в 8.04 в рекавери теперь попадаешь в графическое меню выбора: normal boot, root shell и что-то вроде — попытаться востановить или настроить X сервер. Прикольно :)))

GRUB Error 11: Unrecognized Device String

This just popped out of nowhere. i tried reinstalling GRUB with a livecd but that didn’t work. This is on a fresh install from last night. This morning just rebooted and BAM. The Windows option still works though..:rolleyes:

Heres my menu.lst

# (0) Arch Linux
title  Arch Linux
root  (hd0,2)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz26
root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/a9341d88-bf3b-4dfe-a46d-46c38b2c2224 ro
initrd /boot/kernel26.img

# (1) Arch Linux

root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/a9341d88-bf3b-4dfe-a46d-46c38b2c2224 ro
initrd /boot/kernel26-fallback.img

Whats wrong?

Re: GRUB Error 11: Unrecognized Device String

The kernel and root must be in the same line
Wrong:
kernel /boot/vmlinuz26
root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/a9341d88-bf3b-4dfe-a46d-46c38b2c2224 ro

Right:
kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/a9341d88-bf3b-4dfe-a46d-46c38b2c2224 ro

Press «e» in your grub screen on any one

Go to the root line and press «e»

Go to its begining and type kernel /boot/vmlinuz26

Press Enter

Go to the previous line («The one with the kernel in it»)

Press «d» to delete it

Press «b» to boot

When your install boots, open the /boot/grub/menu.lst and delete the line break between the kernel and root line. Save the file.

Re: GRUB Error 11: Unrecognized Device String

Thank you!

This happened to me on the first boot after installing. It seems that nano automatically put root on a new line when I added a vga setting. As I was editing menu.lst to remove the newline, nano tried replacing it several times!

I think I’ll go and learn vi now.

Re: GRUB Error 11: Unrecognized Device String

I had the same problem, when you edit the kernel line, it word wraps the root= line. You just add your change, then backspace at the beginning of the line.

You can also just create a .nanorc file in your home directory and put in

and all will be well.

That’s why it’s safer to invoke ‘nano -w’ when dealing with system configuration files.


arch(3) adj amused because you think you understand something better than other people ;P
