Hello community!
Sorry for long description!
Had to do:in attempt to restore GRUB of successfully installed Trixie using LiveDebian from USB flash.
Running 'Install...Rescue'from Installation Wizard brings dialog window There's no option to choose proper partition as two drives are misplaced by Installation Wizard itself. It states '/dev/sdaX' and '/dev/sdbY' . The fact is my positions are '/dev/sdaY' and '/dev/sdbX' - i.e. mirror flip over. Thus rescue fails to be initiated to missing partition.
Should it be installed without loading kernel modules?
Meanwhile using RescueLive I did:/dev/sdc is occupied by LiveDebian USB
So according to RescueLive my next step would be to mount partitions from SDD adn HDD to '/mnt' :
Got a little stuck over here due to that ERROR.
But ignored it anyway.
After which I executed next commandNext command supposed to beWhich is not entered yet.
There's an ERROR: (grub-probe: error: cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/sdc1. Check your device.map.) Here comes my USB with LiveDebian on it. I put it into archive for the reference.
I see that second OS is missing from update-grub output and keep machine idle without executing it in hope somebody will help me to get this second OS right in GRUB?
QUESTION:
Can I safely execute # exit ?

Had to do:
Code:
boot: rescuegrub-install '(sda1)'
Running 'Install...Rescue'from Installation Wizard brings dialog window
Code:
'!! Load installer components from installation media' with following content: 'No kernel modules were found. This probably is due to mismatch between the kernel used by this version of the installer and the kernel version available in the archive. You should make sure that your installation image is up-to-date, or - if that's the case - try try a different mirror, preferably deb.debian.org.The installation will probably fail to work if you continue without kernel modules.

Meanwhile using RescueLive I did:

So according to RescueLive my next step would be to mount partitions from SDD adn HDD to '/mnt' :
Code:
# mount /dev/sda7 /mnt (Mounted the rootfs)# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot/efi/ (Mounted the EFI boot partition)# mount /dev/sda8 /mnt/opt (Separate partitions for /OPT during istall)# mount /dev/sdb3 /mnt/home (Separate partitions for /HOME Just assume /mnt as new / for now and everything will be fall under /mnt/var, /mnt/tmp, /mnt/home like that)# for name in proc sys dev ; do mount --bind /$name /mnt/$name; done (to bind mounts of /dev (device nodes), /proc (process information pseudo-file system), and /sys (kernel objects file system))# mount --bind /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/etc/resolv.conf (For getting your network work inside chroot environment, just mount /etc/resolve.conf)# chroot /mnt/ /bin/bash (To access/operate your locally installed system from live cd and make changes to it)##### # nano /etc/default/grub (GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false (To edit etc/default/grub (as root) after installation so this line reads 'false' which was already uncommented)# apt install network-manager-gnome (To upgrade the grub and regenerate initramfs if necessary (most probably you don't have to))[code] That last one gave normal output with one ERROR:... Fetched 10.1 MB in 2s (6,545 kB/s) Error: Can not write log (Is /dev/pts mounted?) - posix_openpt (19: No such device)...
But ignored it anyway.
After which I executed next command
Code:
# update-initramfs -uv; update-grub (!!! Did not segregated 'update-grub' from rest of the the line and executed as is !!! That followed with massive shell output which could be seen here [url=https://pastebin.com/hcxKH81h]here[/url] )
Code:
# exit
There's an ERROR: (grub-probe: error: cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/sdc1. Check your device.map.) Here comes my USB with LiveDebian on it. I put it into archive for the reference.
I see that second OS is missing from update-grub output and keep machine idle without executing it in hope somebody will help me to get this second OS right in GRUB?
