[SOLVED] [GRUB error] "no such device" "vmlinuz-linux not found"
SOLUTION AT POST #11
I just completed the install process onto a new machine. Grub starts but then returns these error messages.
Booting 'Arch GNU/Linux, with Linux core repo kernel'
error: no such device: ad4103fa-d940-47ca-8506-301d8071d467.
Loading Linux core repo kernel ...
error: file '/boot/vmlinuz-linux' not found.
Loading initial ramdisk ...
error: you need to load the kernel first.
Press any key to continue...
I installed Arch via a flashdrive (sdb), onto SATA port 1 (sda). SDA has a fresh MBR. Unfortunately, I have no way to post my grub config files. What files must I modify to get GRUB to work properly?

Step 1: Start Arch via boot disc.
Step 2: Connect to internet.
Step 3: Mount partitions.
# swapon dev/sdX
# mount /dev/sdX /mnt
# mount /dev/sdX /mnt/home
# mount /dev/sdX /mnt/boot
Step 4: Chroot
# arch-chroot /mnt
Step 5: Remake grub.conf
# grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
Another Notable Tip by: jynnantonix
If you need to post information from terminal to the internet, use the following:
[insert command here] | curl -F 'sprunge=<-' http://sprunge.us
example: ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/ | curl -F 'sprunge=<-' http://sprunge.us
example: cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg | curl -F 'sprunge=<-' http://sprunge.us

How to solve it? What is wrong?
Last edited by rado3105 (2012-09-11 16:32:25)Ok sorry.
The problem was that I didnt know that syslinux is alternative to grub. So I installed syslinux and also grub. Thanks -
Hello, I just installed Archlinux on my ssd.
On /dev/sdc1 I installed archlinux and on /dev/sdc3 I have EFI partition.
I am using gummiboot and it cant find vmlinuz-linux.
Vmlinuz-linux is in boot folder on /dev/sdc1.
I tried to change arch conf from /vmlinuz-linux to /boot/vmlinuz-linux, but it didnt help.
What can I do to detect it ?Gummiboot can only load kernel images on the EFI system partition.
This is why the Beginner's Guide advises you to mount /boot to the ESP.

Error: no such device 36A84D5EA84D1DAD
Hi,
I have both win7 professional and ubuntu 11.10 on my t410i.
Everything was ok, till I try onHackMe and it recognize some problems, it deleted my dlls and...After I restarted for finishing the task, my windows couldn't start....I deleted my c drive completely and restored my windows hardly to factory settings. Grub menu didn't change. And now both of Linux and windows works approximately good. But after I choose win7 in grub menu, before win startup I get this error:
"Error: no such device 36A84D5EA84D1DAD
Press any key to continue..."
It passing automatically after seconds, but I want to know what is it and how I can solve it?HI shahrzad, (This should probably be in the Linux forum)
I'm guessing here, but this is probably because the UUID of the Windows partition has changed.
You might be able to fix it by booting Ubuntu and running update-grub.
Otherwise, try posting in a Ubuntu forum, or googling "ubuntu windows 7 grub Error: no such device uuid changed" or something similar.
[edit] This is just one of the reasons I miss grub legacy.
Good luck,
Z.

Error no such device (after installation)
Dear all,
I'd like to gradually switch to Arch (from Ubuntu) so I decided to install it on a virtual machine (Virtualbox).
I followed the instructions in the "Unofficial Beginners Guide" and I thought I followed all the steps correctly.
The only thing that confused me a bit was the installation of the Virtualbox Kernel modules (to me from the guide it
is not clear if I have to install them in Ubuntu, the system from which I run the virtual machine, or in Arch the system
that is installed in the virtual machine).
Anyway I think I followed the procedure in the right way, and I didn't get any error message during the installation,
but apparently I made something wrong.
When I boot Arch, I get the GRUB menu. I select "Arch GNU/Linux with core repo kernel",
but I get this error message:
error no such device: (device id)
Loading Linux core repo...
error: no such partition
Loading initial ramdisk
error: you need to run the kernel first.
Press any key to continue...
When I press any key I get back to the GRUB menu.
If I select "Arch GNU/Linux, with core repo kernel (Fallback initramfs)"
I get the same error message.
Can you help me understanding where things might have gone wrong?
Thanks a lot in advance for your help,
and hopefully I'll join you soon in this Arch adventure
Best,

if I upfate to linux 3.6 with this line:

in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf the system is not able to boot.
I gathered that the mdadm_udev hook was preferred but it seems to cause problems in this case.
After I successfully upgrade (having "mdadm" in /mkinitcpio.conf) I can change "mdadm" to "mdadm_udev" and
the system will still boot fine.
Does somebody know what gives?

At my PC startup, I get an error message "AppleSyncNotifier.exe--Entry Point Not Found" My iPhone now doesn't show up as a Device in either iTunes or My Computer on my PC. I've uninstalled/ reinstalled iTunes & run diagnostics-no luck. Ideas?
I think my problem is fixed now.
For the fun of it, I reinstalled iTunes 9.2.1 today (using the exact same installer as I did yesterday), but this time I didn't uninstall iTunes first. As expected, iTunes recognized my iPhone (as I expected it to, until my next reboot).
A few minutes later, Software Update showed up and among the updates is "iPhone SDK Compatibility Update". The description indicates that installing this should fix an issue where iPhones and iPod touches aren't recognized by iTunes. Isn't that interesting?
I installed that update and most of the others waiting for me (including Java, Safari 5.0.1, and a few others - not 10.6.4 though, due to the issues with nVidia graphics cards). After the reboot, I started iTunes, and it saw my iPhone!
So, if you're having this same problem, I'd recommend tracking down this update and see if that does the trick for you. Hopefully it will. -
When I plug in my iPhone to a USB port on the back of my computer I get the error "MTP USB Device driver was not successfully installed" and of course there is no device that shows up either. It would be great to download my photos! I'm using Windows

ERROR: Device '/dev/sda3' not found.
This is my first time compiling a custom kernel. I am trying to compile zen kernel 3.12.3. Whenever I try to boot it up, it says this:
ERROR: device '/dev/sda3' not found. Skipping fsck
ERROR: Unable to find root device '/dev/sda3'
Then it drops me to a recovery shell. When I look at the contents of '/dev' none of my partitions are found on sda. '/dev/sda' is listed but nothing else. Has anybody else had this problem? /i have read various fixes but none of them have helped.
Sorry this is my first post.
Thanks in advance.Well, the whole point of the initramfs is to have it load the necessary modules to mount the rootfs. So if mkinitpcio complains that there are no modules to put in there, that is pretty problematic.
I think you should take a look at the PKGBUILD for the official Arch kernel. It includes a few lines that allow you to use menuconfig or nconfig or whatever, prior to that actual 'make'. I think that any time you install things to your system, you should probably be leveraging the package manager in order to properly track the files. This is particularly true when you are an Arch user and the creation of packages is so damn easy. -
Unable to load ITUNES onto PC HP, windows 7 Home Version. Error message reads "Application Application Support not found". "Uninstall and reload". I have done that 4 times on Explorer and Firefox without success. Help??
I had gotten a similar problem, except with "provider services", i believe, but i solved it by copying sqlite3.dll from E:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support to E:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support. doing that solved my first problem, but now i have been getting the error described in this topic (unable to load dataclass info... etc.). i tried reinstalling itunes (i already had 9.1.1, and thats what i reinstalled) by using the method described on apples site (using the "remove programs" tool in the control panel) and then downloading and installing itunes. when i opened it again, i still got the same error, and just now i got an error saying "the instruction at "0x00aadb6b" referenced memory at "0x00000008". the memory could not be read" it gave me the option to cancel and debug, or to press ok and terminate the program. I tried pressing cancel, and the popup went away but nothing else happened. a minute later the popup was back, so i pressed ok and itunes quit. Upon opening Itunes again, i got the very same error. sorry for the long post, but its really been bugging me. thanks for any help you might give, and if you need anymore info, feel free to contact me.

I am trying to authorize my computer and I get an error message: The required directory was not found or has a permissions error. Correct this permissions problem and try again, or deauthorize this computer if the permissions cannot be changed. Help?
I used Terminal to change the permissions on the folder in question. I followed the instructions in this article:
iTunes: Missing folder or incorrect permissions may prevent authorization
In my case, the folder was there, so I needed the command to change permissions on the folder, not to create one. I was hesitant to use Terminal b/c I know that if I made an error I could wipe out my hard drive or render my computer unusable. So to be SURE I didn't make an error, I carefully copied the command from that page and *pasted* it into Terminal. Also, before I could do anything in Terminal, I had to go change my admin password (it had been a blank password before and that's not acceptable for making changes in Terminal). I was just super careful when entering my password or doing anything else while Terminal was open (making sure I didn't accidently hit the spacebar or another key, etc.) And it fixed the problem right away.
What was confusing for me was that the iTunes error message said to change permissions in the FINDER, which is what I was trying to do. It didn't mention Terminal. What would really be helpful is if Apple included a link to a page like this in their error message. -
