I installed Fedora(32-bit) for 1st time. I tried to set my dual-booted(Windows 7 & Ubuntu 14.04) BIOS-PC to triple-boot with Fedora 26 without fruit.
I started as below...
Created 3 standard partitions instead of LVM partition:
/
- encrypted,ext4, 10 GB./boot
- unencrypted,ext4.swap
- unencrypted.
I unchecked 'bootloader install' from Anaconda since there was already ubuntu-grub on MBR. At the end Installer says it successfully installed fedora. but after reboot, Fedora 26 was not listed on GRUB 2 boot menu. I ran
sudo update-grub
from Ubuntu terminal but result was unchanged. I can see those newly created partitions usingsudo blkid
.Here is the output of
sudo blkid
:/dev/sda1: LABEL="System Reserved" UUID="F2622FA6622F6F13" TYPE="ntfs" /dev/sda2: LABEL="Windows" UUID="FE703488703449A3" TYPE="ntfs" /dev/sda5: UUID="03f69c95-69fd-4302-adf3-96a495584a4c" TYPE="ext4" /dev/sda6: UUID="9087cac3-ee43-4c6b-9cf3-bf818697e239" TYPE="swap" /dev/sda7: LABEL="Common Drive" UUID="EA203DE0203DB483" TYPE="ntfs" /dev/sda8: UUID="1b498ed0-dd4c-4021-942f-4c20ba4bb79c" TYPE="crypto_LUKS" /dev/sda9: LABEL="Fd-bt" UUID="720dc2b9-e1fe-4adc-a2de-10c26567729a" TYPE="ext4" /dev/sda10: LABEL="Fd-swp" UUID="d8b3cdd6-908f-4a5d-8ac5-9ec1dfb62fa6" TYPE="swap"
Here, sda8
is the Fedora root partition.
My question is how to fix or overcome this problem? Do I have to install some additional package for encrypted sda8
or something else?
/dev/sda9
should have what's necessary to unlock the LUKS container and proceed booting from there. The problem is GRUB doesn't know about your Fedora installation. Do you have a grub2 configuration in/dev/sda9
? This would be a separate config from the grub installed from Ubuntu. – Emmanuel Rosa Apr 27 '18 at 14:13
