Thread: 10.04.3 LTS x64 initramfs prompt every boot
i have refurbished dell poweredge r200 using sas 6 raid controller attempting install ubuntu server 10.04.3 lts x64 on. have raid 1 setup installing to. install of ubuntu server x64 went through no errors, when rebooted went (initramfs) prompt complaining gave waiting root device.
shows prompt, can type enter , continues booting logon prompt. i’ve done amount of research @ point , cannot find concrete fix this. 1 thing found grub , says add rootdelay=90 /boot/grub/menu.lst grub2 doesn’t have that. have tried editing /etc/default/grub uncomment grub_disable_linux_uuid=true grub stops using uuid. appears me it’s timing out before boot path detected. have ideas?

after see message
"press <ctrl-e> bmc setup within 5 sec......"
hold down shift
following
boot server / login insome netbook users have had success placing "rootdelay=90" @ end of "linux" line when boot.
@ grub menu, highlight entry want, press "e" edit menuentry.
find "linux" line. ends "quiet splash".
add rootdelay=90 end of line.
press ctrl-x boot.
if works, edit /etc/default/grub (gksu gedit /etc/default/grub) , add rootdelay=90 line:
quote:
grub_cmdline_linux_default="quiet splash rootdelay=90"
update grub:
code:
sudo update-grub
may able reduce value of rootdelay.
update grub per post..
