I have a multi boot box with grub2 installed on the mbr of /dev/sdc. Ubuntu and suse are on /dev/sdc. Win XP is installed on /dev/sdd. The drives /dev/sda and /dev/sdb are data drives.
When I installed suse12.1, I went in to ubuntu and did a gurb update and I have been able to boot into suse. There is an issue that when I boot into suse, I get the following,
resume device not found (ignoring)
waiting for device /dev/sdc3 to appear
want me to fall back to /dev/disk/by-id/ata-WDC...... (Y/n)
When I enter Y, suse will boot. Why there seems to be an issue finding the drive is unclear to me.
Today, it will not boot into suse when I enter Y. A while ago I had a problem and moved my hard drives to a PCI sata controller card. When I did that, I was not able to boot into anything any more. I used boot-repair (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Boot-Repair) and was able to boot back into windows and ubuntu. I didn't try suse at the time, so I don't know if this problem is a hold over from the problem I repaired with boot-repair or not.
I have attached the results file from the boot_info script. The script seems to indicate that I have grub installed on the mbr of the windows drive as well as sdc. I am surprised at this because I am sure I removed all copies of grub except the on I installed with ubuntu.
Any suggestions on how to get back into suse?
