How to Link Again the Oracle Grid Installation After Recreating the Linux Boot

Ah, that helps... thanks. I thought it might be merely a bit of a terminology issue. You never actually access the swap partition directly, only it is available to the organization.... then you while you may encounter a reference to the /root partition and the /home partition, you rarely encounter a reference to /swap .

Well, I think I tin get you lot started... hopefully enough to boot your Pearl Linux. Just I would like for you lot to wait on the final step until Magician weighs in with the directions I'll give beneath. The final step is to actually re-install the grub bootloader, and I am still hesitant about that in your case. I haven't quite found enough solid info while Googling around.

These directions below are taken from an commodity (hither) by a lady named Carla Schroder. Yous can read her full article (highly recommended) simply I have just taken the steps out to try to get you direct to the point where you can boot. Each command volition be shown in a "lawmaking" box and there volition be some comments below each command.

Start at the grub> prompt... carefully type things exactly... watch for spaces or no spaces, etc.

This isn't a terribly important part, merely she recommends it, so go ahead.

That's lower case LS. I hope you lot get an output that looks like one of these beneath (tell us in your reply)
(hd0,msdos1) or (hd0,gpt1)

With luck, you lot'll see an output like to this below:
lost+constitute/ bin/ boot/ cdrom/ dev/ etc/ home/ lib/
lib64/ media/ mnt/ opt/ proc/ root/ run/ sbin/
srv/ sys/ tmp/ usr/ var/ vmlinuz vmlinuz.old
initrd.img initrd.img.old

Code:

                  grub> cat (hd0,1)/etc/outcome                

This isn't really needed either, it just identifies your Linux. Your Pearl Linux may even so say Ubuntu... similar to this:
Ubuntu xiv.04 LTS \n \l

Okay... the lawmaking beneath has 4 things to do, one after another. Be certain (hd0,1) matches what you found above, but if somethings seems incorrect here then don't proceed. Don't type all of the 2nd and 3rd lines as you see in the instance... follow Carla'southward instructions listed beneath the code. This is where yous use "tab completion" to enter in your exact vmlinuz and initrd file information. Pay special attending to the function in bold... this will not tab complete and you demand to right info. Hither we get....

Code:

                  grub> set root=(hd0,one) chow> linux /boot/vmlinuz-three.thirteen.0-29-generic root=/dev/sda1 grub> initrd /boot/initrd.img-3.13.0-29-generic grub> boot                

The first line sets the sectionalization that the root filesystem is on.
The second line tells GRUB the location of the kernel you want to use. Commencement typing /boot/vmli, and then use tab-completion to fill in the rest. Type root=/dev/sdX to set the location of the root filesystem. Yes, this seems redundant, but if y'all leave this out yous'll get a kernel panic. How do you know the correct partition? hd0,1 = /dev/sda1. hd1,1 = /dev/sdb1. hd3,ii = /dev/sdd2. I call back you lot can extrapolate the residuum.
The third line sets the initrd file, which must exist the aforementioned version number as the kernel.
The 4th line boots your system.

With that, I promise that your Pearl Linux comes alive once more. The terminal steps... those that I'chiliad concerned about... are completed from within Pearl Linux at a regular terminal prompt. Although yous may accept to go through the above process again, please await and let's see what Wizard thinks about this office. And also, he may offer a amend manner that the above anyway. My business is about installing to /dev/sda because that is usually the Main Boot Record (MBR) on a Legacy blazon hard bulldoze.... and I remember yours is going to exist GPT instead of MBR. Then, here are the final steps, as Carla describes in her commodity:

Code:

                  sudo update-grub sudo grub-install /dev/sda                

(Carla shows " # " instead of sudo.... basically the same thing. Yous're running these commands equally root.)

OK, plenty typing from me for awhile! (At present to postal service and review for mistakes.)

Cheers
