Re: grub2 will not boot RHEL8 install on new disk

is set root='hd0,msdos1' correct? I'm under the assumption that that directive sets the target disk/partition, which would be partition 1 on disk 0. If that assumption is correct, in my opinion the directive is correct as that would be sda1, which indeed has the proper uuid. My assumption is based ...

Re: grub2 will not boot RHEL8 install on new disk

In hindsight, I could've made a very short post stating 'grub2 fails to find new disk while uuid matches'...
Until it finds the disk all the rest is pretty irrelevant. :shock:

Re: grub2 will not boot RHEL8 install on new disk

I did notice that. I first encountered it when upgrading Fedora 29 to Fedora 30.
But imho it doesn't even get that far as grub fails to find the disk to begin with, even though it's supposed to search by uuid, which is valid, so it has no idea what OS is on it at the time it fails.

grub2 will not boot RHEL8 install on new disk

Hi all, please bear with me as it's a bit of a story. I'm running CentOS 7.9 fully updated in a dual-boot setup with Win10 on separate SSDs. The Win disk was detected by grub2 and added to the menu a long time ago, and selecting either OS works fine. Now I disconnected both SSDs, installed RHEL 8.4 ...

Re: autofs

You don't specify what version you're running. If CentOS 7.4, you may be looking at a bug:
viewtopic.php?f=48&t=64309
CentOS 7.3 and earlier should be fine (but outdated; so then consider updating, exluding autofs).

Re: autofs appears to be broken in CentOS 7.4

yum --enablerepo=C7.3.1611-base,C7.3.1611-updates downgrade autofs perhaps? Hi Trevor, Thanks, you're the man. This indeed fixes it, so there's definitely something wrong with the latest version's parameter substitution. I'd mark this thread solved, but I presume I'll need to file a bug report some...

Re: autofs appears to be broken in CentOS 7.4

Gentle bump... Using Google, I found only one other reference to autofs invalid parameter substitution here: https://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=48&t=64309 Conclusion would be I'm doing something wrong, but I haven't changed anything, and it still works with the original ${host} parameter ...

autofs appears to be broken in CentOS 7.4 [SOLVED]

Tonight I updated my CentOS 7.3 laptop to CentOS 7.4, and now the automounter no longer works. My config is according to the Tips&Tricks one, and has been unchanged for a long time: /etc/auto.master: /misc /etc/auto.misc /net -hosts +dir:/etc/auto.master.d /home/rh.hartman/smb auto.smb.top /etc/auto...
