[arch-general] Grub menu.lst for USB drive
I have a base install that I have placed on a USB thumb drive. I need to get grub to boot it by uuid or label so I can boot it from any PC I can get it to boot using a kernel line like this: # (0) Arch Linux title Arch Linux (x86_64) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sdd1 rootdelay=15 ro initrd /kernel26.img This don't work # (0) Arch Linux title Arch Linux (x86_64) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz26 root=UUID=6342a6b5-25cf-4d01-a318-68309d12ab5b rootdelay=15 ro initrd /kernel26.img This don't work # (0) Arch Linux title Arch Linux (x86_64) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/6342a6b5-25cf-4d01-a318-68309d12ab5b rootdelay=15 ro initrd /kernel26.img Any one know how to get this to work?
# (0) Arch Linux title Arch Linux (x86_64) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/6342a6b5-25cf-4d01-a318-68309d12ab5b rootdelay=15 ro initrd /kernel26.img
this should work ... at least it worked for me, last time when my big laptop was broke and I booted its HDD with Arch on a spare EEEpc :) -- damjan
