(Solved) grub rescue file not found

I reinstalled arch, also installed grub with arch installation. After reboot grub gives that error.
"file not found"
what should i do now? I'm writing from ubuntu live cd
Last edited by bilgee0629 (2011-04-16 07:22:25)

First thing to do, Assuming an Error 15: file not found, would be to check your grub's menu.lst to make sure that it is referencing the correct partition and vmlinuz26. If you have a separate boot partition it should reference that partition and just use /vmlinuz26 (as explained on the following thread https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=56251). However if everything there seems correct, you will have to post more information for people to help you, such as the contents of /etc/fstab along with your menu.list.
you can check the menu.lst through the ubuntu live cd by mounting the arch root partition (or /boot if you partitioned it that way) and opening /boot/grub/menu.lst.
Also, this might be of help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1263009.

[SOLVED] HPLIP- PPD file not found.

Hello all,
I am trying to install an HP Officejet 5610 All-in-One. I have used HPLIP in Ubuntu before to install it and it worked fine. However, I do not seem to be able to get it to work here in Arch.
I installed hplip through pacman, which seemed to work fine.
Upon typing:
sudo hp-setup
I select USB as the printer I want to detect, and that goes fine. It sees that I have an 'HP Officejet 5600 series' and after clicking next I get a 'PPD file not found' error.
I try the 'Select Other' option, but there is no PPD file relating to the 5610 AIO or even the 5600 series. I also went to linuxprinting.org to try and find a PPD file, but there doesn't seem to be one for this printer.
As I say, I know that the printer/scanner/fax-everything worked just fine in Ubuntu, so I am sure that it can be accomplished here. I must just be missing something simple.
Does anyone have any idea as to how I can get the appropriate PPD file, or which one of the listed ones might work instead? The only Officejet that I see listed is the 'hp_officejet_9100_series-ps.ppd.gz', does that sound like a reasonable choice?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I should have mentioned that I am running Arch64, in case that has some bearing on the issue.

Thanks for the reply.
Well this is all rather odd. I checked and I had chosen 'foomatic/hpijs'. So I tried printing this thread again. No more odd characters. Apart from some seriously awful fonts (it is not printing the fonts that I actually see on the page) the page prints more or less normal. Also though, the Arch Linux banner does not show up, and Home, Forums, etc. do but they don't print right. There should be a black and a blue bar over the Home, Forums, etc., but it doesn't show up. I tried printing a third time and got the same weird characters as the first time.
So what do you think the problem with this is? I find it strange that it almost works once, then works weird, and I'm sure if I try enough times I will get another decent page. So I am lost here. The scanner seems to be working fine though. So there is definite progress, after all the printer works now. I assume that it is some language of font problem. I really have no idea though. Any more help is appreciated. Thanks.
I was gonna include screenshots but I don't seem to be able to figure out how to do that. Help please

instead of:
libtool
Last edited by eNTi (2010-10-07 11:38:17)

thx for the answers, but the solution was, that i had still installed libtool and not lib32-libtool from multilib. that was quite a strain to find out, because the error message wouldn't lead me in that direction in any way. i only got suspicious because wine suddenly showed the same symptoms.

[SOLVED] GRUB 2 - "error: file not found" after Clonezilla Restore

Hello,
I backed up my Arch Install which is one root partition covering the entire SDD with Clonezilla, to play around with Gentoo and FreeBSD on my Laptop.
Now I restored the image and when GRUB 2 loads I see "error: file not found" three times for a short momemt before I'm in the GRUB 2 menu.
When I boot my I also see these 3 messages (probably the once from the early loading process) and "Loading Linux ck kernel...." "Loading initrafms...." "Press any key to continue..." When I wait for a short time or press enter it boots like expected (fsck message appears for a short time since I'm using quite boot and I'm in KDM after that).
Grub loading...
error: file not found
error: file not found
error: file not found
Loading Linux ck kernel...
Loading initramfs...
Press any key to continue...
I did not have this when I backed it up. It booted into the menu and when I booted the menu entry it would go black to show me the fsck message and seconds later I was in KDM.
I tried $ sudo grub-mkconfig but it did not change anything.
This is my current /boot/grub/grub.cfg

Anyone has a clue what files it is looking for? And why it doesn't boot straight away, when there is nothing that keeps it from booting up normal anyway?

GRUB: file not found

Firstly if this is not the right place for this thread feel free to move it, I wasn't sure if it need be here or in installation.
My Debian installation 'died' (my own fault) however I was ready for a change anyway so I took the oppertunity to try arch out as I would prefer to use a 'faster' moving OS. So I followed the installation procedure and after rebooting my system post install I just get GRUB: file not found, then the grub rescue prompt.
I have an unavoidable windows partition on the system that has to be there for development reasons.
I have a 50Mb boot partition for grub, as well as a root partition and home partition, the latter two are logical.
fdisk -l yeilds:

note I only have one actual disk 'sda'

sorry if a lot of that is redundant and let me know if I can provide any more info to assist the problem, I really need this system woking, also if could get access back to the Windows partition that would be a major plus.
Thanks again

Hi thanks for your reply.
I have a more general question, when I install grub is grub supposed to install something to the first 512 or whatever bytes of the HDD to point to where the boot loader actually is?
The way I have a feeling it may have done this to the start of sda3 rather than sda. When I do a grub-install I get a 'Could not find device for /boot: Not found or not a block device'
I am getting to the point where I reckon my machine is fubar-ed enough not to bother trying to save it it's current state, :S
I would bet that your MBR (first sector of your disk) contains remnants of your debian grub. Debian uses grub2 which is notorious for wanting to decide it all - me, I far prefer grub legacy ... then _you_ (or _I_ as the case might be) is in complete control! (end rant)
If you have only _one_ linux - then it's ok to install grub (or grub2) on the MBR. If you have more than one, I would strongly suggest that you install to the first sector of the root (or /boot) filesystem. Actually, if you have more than one - I wouldn't bother about a seperate boot-partition, you will just end up in confusion as to which /boot belongs to which distro.
Seeing you also have 'that other OS', I would use the standard dos-loader on the MBR - this will look for one (and only one) active partition amongst the primary ones. In that case you can happily install arch's grub on sda3 (as in your case) and make this the active partition (boot-flag is set).
However, there is also no problems involved in putting it on the MBR - instructions are given below:
# installing grub on the mbr
grub
grub> root (hd0,2) ## seeing your /boot-partition is on sda3
grub> setup (hd0) ## install to MBR
grub> quit
# installing grub on sda3
grub
grub> root (hd0,2)
grub> setup (hd0,2)
grub> quit
In the latter case, you have to use fdisk to toggle the boot-flag so that sda3 is the 'active' partition.
The above is just my very personal opinion and there will be numerous others that think _their_ way is the best *shrug* Each to his or her own ...

[Solved] grub2: file not found but booting fine

I just ran grub-mkconfig to update my grub.cfg because I installed E4rat. But now I have a problem: Every entry in grub2 can be booted and E4rat really boosted my boot process so actually everything is fine. But while grub2 is loading it says something like:
Grub 2 is loading...
Welcome to Grub 2!
error: file not found.
error: file not found.
error: file not found.
Now grub shows up and everything is as it should be. When I select Arch it again says "error: file not found." three times and continues with a normal boot process. So basically it's nothing that would brake my system but something seems not right and that's just a huge annoyance.
Here's my grub.cfg just in case:

I have the same error message as in the first post. "error: file not found" listed three times when I first choose Arch from the Grub2 menu. The solution linked to by the.ridikulus.rat would not seem to apply as I do not have the locales en* in /boot/grub/locale BTW, I am in the US. The system does boot though.
I just fixed this a few seconds ago and was going to post how, basically I just did "cp /boot/grub/locale/[email protected] /boot/grub/locale/en_US.mo" which seem to do the trick, the reason I didn't fix this sooner is the error only stays up for a very small fraction of a second making it hard to read.
# ls /boot/grub/locale
ast.mo da.mo fi.mo hu.mo it.mo nl.mo ru.mo uk.mo zh_CN.mo
ca.mo de.mo fr.mo id.mo ko.mo pl.mo sv.mo vi.mo
EDIT: I get the same three "error: file not found" messages when I boot Fedora (a multiboot system). This is with grub2 installed from Arch Linux.

[SOLVED]getting "error 15: file not found!"

Hi all, I'm new to Arch and linux in general but i've managed so far and I'm really enjoying it.
I'm dual booting Arch and Vista.
Anyway, everything was working fine until I decided that I wanted to stop using GRUB as my bootloader and I used a program called EasyBCD and this guide http://apcmag.com/how_to_dualboot_vista … htm?page=4
Now, I get "Error 15: File not found!" when i try to boot into arch. I've looked through countless other threads and google results with people with the same problem but none of the solutions in those threads helped me.
here's my menu.lst

ok, try doing it the manual way by booting the cd as if you where to do an installation where it prompts you to log in as root.
Once your logged in as root do
grub
and you will get the grub prompt
grub>
then the at the grub> prompt do
grub> root (hd0,2)
that tells grub it will find the boot files on the 3rd partition of the 1st hard drive. Then,
grub> setup (hd0)
to setup the grub bootloader on the MBR of the first hard drive.
If all goes well you should see something like 'Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... yes '.
grub> quit
and reboot.

Grub Error 15: File not found

I am using Tobias Powalowski's 2008.10 archboot to install archlinux
everything seems fine, except with "setting password", and i skipped that.
after rebooting, grub comes up with an error 15: File not found
It appears that grub find /vmlinuz but not /kernel26.img..
anyone help? thank you.
Some information below
==== grub shows =======
root (hd0,0)
File system type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83
kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/06370655..91 ro

Press any key to continue...

actually i find there is no kernel26.img in /boot/
ls /boot

where can i get kernel26.img?

[SOLVED]Dual boot Grub2 : file not found

here is my config :
Ubuntu 11.1 installed on sd1. It is my default system, and where the GRUB2 config is.
I installed Archlinux on sd2, with /boot on (hd1,1) and / on (hd1,2).
I want to set up GRUB to boot both systems.
here is my /etc/grub.d/11_linux_arch, in the Ubuntu system :
#!/bin/sh -e
echo "Adding Archlinux"
cat << EOF
menuentry "ArchLinux" {
set root=(hd1,2)
linux /boot/vmlinuz-linux
initrd /boot/initramfs-linux.img
EOF
vmlinux-linux and initramfs-linux.img are well in my /boot folder on (hd1,1)
At grub prompt, I can see Archlinux as an option. When I select it, I get an error message, "file not found".
I can't see where is an error.
TY for any help.

Here is what I added to /etc/grub.d/40_custom
# Arch Linux
menuentry "Arch Linux" {
set root=(hd1,1)
linux /vmlinuz-linux root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/38616db1-366f-40f4-a728-1230e81abb21 ro
initrd /initramfs-linux.img
I think telling the uuid is better but /dev/sdb2 (my / partition) works too.
Then :
#sudo update-grub
and I have been able to dual boot Archlinux and Ubuntu 11.10.
The resolution is bad, so I will add a line about it, but I guess it is not diificult.

[SOLVED] == ERROR: file not found: `/sbin/dmsetup'

[EDIT] A much simpler way to deal with this is to explicitly ignore the kernel update during a full system update:
pacman -Syu --ignore linux
Then explicitly update the kernel alone:
pacman -S linux
[EDIT] First, after a full system update I had to move the STUB kernel image from the UEFI directory back to /boot, them recreate the images a second time. The systemd service moved it back to the UEFI directory.
[EDIT] The use of 'mdadm_udev' in HOOKS= also seems to be no longer just 'preferred' to the 'mdadm' hook but instead is now mandatory.
I've read the news item...
Changes to LVM
2013-02-12 - Thomas Bächler
With lvm2 2.02.98-3, we now utilize lvmetad to activate LVM volumes automatically. This implies the following changes:
The lvm2 initramfs hook now requires the udev hook.
The use_lvmetad = 1 must be set in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf. This is the default now - if you have a lvm.conf.pacnew file, you must merge this change.
You can restrict the volumes that are activated automatically by setting the auto_activation_volume_list in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf. If in doubt, leave this option commented out.
If you need monitoring (needed for snapshots), run systemctl enable lvm-monitoring.service.
The lvmwait kernel command line option is no longer needed and has no effect.
If you run pacman -Syu and update device-mapper, linux and lvm2 at the same time, you will get an error message that /sbin/dmsetup is missing. Run mkinitcpio -p linux again after the update to avoid any problems.
...and I do get the message...
==> ERROR: file not found: `/sbin/dmsetup'
...but after a full system update with...
pacman -Syu
...when I execute...
mkinitcpio -p linux
...this is what I get...
Building image from preset: 'default'
/boot/vmlinuz-linux -c /etc/mkinitcpio.conf -g /boot/initramfs-linux.img
ERROR:specified kernel image does not exist: `/boot/vmlinuz-linux'
Building image from preset: 'fallback'
/boot/vmlinuz-linux -c /etc/mkinitcpio.conf -g /boot/initramfs-linux-fallback.img -S autodetect
ERROR:specified kernel image does not exist: `/boot/vmlinuz-linux'
So of course if I reboot I get the dreaded 'No volume groups found' message.
I should mention that I use the systemd path and service to move the kennel after it has been updated.

Just to confirm. You did all these steps, right?
EDIT: I just noticed something:
KairiTech wrote:HOOKS="base udev autodetect sata mdadm usbinput keymap encrypt lvm2 filesystems timestamp shutdown"
Replace
mdadm
with
mdadm_udev
. Maybe this is nothing, but it is recommended to use this one instead of the other.
NEW EDIT: Expecially this one
The use_lvmetad = 1 must be set in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf. This is the default now - if you have a lvm.conf.pacnew file, you must merge this change.

Do all of those files exist on your sytemd? I'm not running testing nor systemd in my initrd, so I can't do much checking.

Sounds like a good reason, as when I do pacman -Ss akonadi it shows up.
EDIT: when speaking of which, it works.
But:

kdelibs: /usr/share/apps/cmake/modules/FindKDevPlatform.cmake exists in filesystem
should I just delete it(the file)? I have kdevelop installed along side cmake.

After kernel upgrade "file not found"

I upgraded to kernel version 3 and I rebooted but I didn't do anything in menu.lst, because I thought symlinks would work, so I rebooted but it didn't work. I tried to boot changing names in grub menu but I'm always getting same error "file not found" and I don't know what else to do. I can see the vmlinuz-linux but I can't see initramfs-linux file in /boot from a Live CD. Can you share your menu.lst to try them please.

I ran into the same problem. I bookmarked this thread earlier, sorry if the problem has been solved in another one and I didn't notice it.
After putting back the kernel and ramdisk from a backup (using different filenames) and downgrading the kernel (mkinitcpio doesn't work, that's why I had to take the ramdisk from a backup), I was able to get back into my system.
I found a mkinitcpio.conf.pacnew, but no significant changes in there. Applied them anyway.

@tbuitenh: I encountered this same situation today when I tried to update linux-ck-corei7 from 3.0.4-1 to 3.0.4-2. Like you, running pacman after "su -" (instead of "su") permitted me to complete the update.
I figure this has to do with default login path, right? What exactly is going on here, and how can I fix it? I don't normally run pacman this way.

JBO:33001 bc4j.xcfg file not found in class path

Hi,
I am yet another victim of the age-old error JBO:33001 bc4j.xcfg file not found in class path, When i have my BC4JApp.jar in Tomcat Web-inf/lib directory. All the other jar files and class files in my webserver-application web-inf classes and lib directory works.
But Tomcat server is not able to read this bc4j.xcfg file. I can see in my jar file that this bc4j.xcfg exists and in the specified package directory. still the problem persists. My BC4JApp.jar is perfectly working when i use JDeveloper. but not when i use tomcat4.0 and call a JSP using BC4JApp.jar from browser (My environment is Jdeveloper3.2, Tomcat4.0+IIS in middle tier and oracle 8i as DB, everything on windows2k)
I have gone through almost all the threads possible that relates to this error in this form. None of them have a answer except to say "put the file in classpath". and last reply is "will fix in jDeveloper 9i. So what happens to us who are working in Jdeveloper 3.2?
1. I have this file in my jar file.
2. I also tried creating a seperate directory manually, with the same name as my package under web-inf/classes, web-inf/lib , just under web-inf directory and atlast under approot directory also. I tried having my package directory containing bc4j.xcfg in these folders one at a time and also tried having this directory in all these folders at the same time.
Still no solution.
Itz frustrating that neither proper documentation nor a right url page nor i am aware of available addressing this. page links given in above threads only gives me the wonderful page of ie's "Page cannot be displayed".
Is there a answer to this error and my problem. If this doesn't work, then i have to all the way develop from scratch creating my jsp using JDBC calls and Stored packages etc.
I don't want to give up on this Jdeveloper at this final moment because if this bc4j.xcfg file is found, my application will work perfectly. on these final moments, if this doesn't work, i am frightened to imagine to develop my application in standard way. Atlast, if thatz the option left,we have to do that bcos our production date is close by.
Please can some one in this forum or Jdeveloper help me to solve this problem. I am desperate and very urgent.
Waiting for a reply from Jdev team very much...
( I just posted in the other thread which is pretty old, dated backto May 2001, which was relevant to this error. Just to make sure it is noticed, I am posting it seperately too)
Thanks

Hi All,
For those who are following this thread, I got a solution for this error with the help of Jdev Team.
This solution may work, if you have deployed your application in Tomcat4.0.1. This is the environment in which I work and tested.
As you may be aware, Tomcat ignores value in CLASSPATH variable.
To see any files that are existing or newly deployed, it has it own way of detecting it.
Addition information on Tomcat working, you can follow this link,
http://jakarta.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-4.0-doc/index.html
Coming to point, Tomcat has got five classloaders and each classloader invoked, looks in their related directories for files in following order.
1. /WEB-INF/classes of your web-application
2. /WEB-INF/lib/*.jar of your web application
3. BootStrap classes of your JVM (Tomcat's $JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/ext)
4. System class loader classes($CATALINA_HOME/bin/bootstrap.jar,CATALINA_HOME/lib/tools.jar)
5. $CATALINA_HOME/common/classes
6. $CATALINA_HOME/common/lib/*.jar
7. $CATALINA_HOME//classes
8. $CATALINA_HOME/lib/*.jar
So All your individual application related files should be deployed in your application's WEB-INF/classes or WEB-INF/lib directory accordingly.
If your application files are unpacked, they should be deployed or copied under WEB-INF/classes directory
if the files are within a jar, they should be under WEB-INF/lib directory.
If your Jar-files contains bc4j components, then those jar files should be deployed under WEB-INF/lib directory. Also,do the next step to copy all relavant BC4J runtime libraries under lib directory.
IMPORTANT: Please remember to copy and paste all the required BC4j runtime libraries in the Same WEB-INF/lib directory along with your application jar files. This is the real reason which can solve this JBO:33001 to disappear. It worked for me.
To configure your directory for tag-lib uri's, use web.xml to set the taglib-uri attribute.
Put your web.xml and DataTags.tld in the WEB-INF directory.
Your simple web.xml may look like as follows.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE web-app
PUBLIC "-//Sun Microsystems, Inc.//DTD Web Application 2.3//EN"
"http://java.sun.com/dtd/web-app_2_3.dtd">
<web-app>
     <taglib>
          <taglib-uri>
               /webapp/DataTags.tld
          </taglib-uri>
          <taglib-location>
               /WEB-INF/DataTags.tld
          </taglib-location>
     </taglib>
</web-app>
You may then modify this web.xml to suit further requirements of your application.
Remember to stop and restart the Tomcat Server (service) by using shutdown and startup scripts after updating any jar files/class files/ JSP or source files deployed in Tomcat.
Sometimes, only this helps even though your context's reloadable attribute is set to true in Tomcat Server's server.xml file.
Hope this above information helps you to solve this error in Tomcat environment. My Sincere thanks once again to Juan and Jdev team for their help and efforts to solve this problem.
Thanks
Hari
