Hi,
I am using FreeBSD 10.3 on an appliance with BIOS+GPT. I wanted to boot "Windriver Linux" when reboot happens. Windriver Linux tar ball is extracted on partition 5 mounted /nextroot. FreeBSD 10.3 is on partition 3, mounted /.
I created a GRUB 2.0 package (grub2-2.00_7) from /usr/ports and installed it on /nextroot/boot using pkg-install(8) command.
grub.cfg (/nextroot/boot/grub/grub.cfg) file is created manually and edited as shown below.
When I select FreeBSD from GRUB menu, 10.3 FreeBSD is booted properly.
But, when I select "Windriver Linux", grub is stuck with the message
I tried to execute the commands manually in grub prompt.
When I execute the command,
Could you help me out in figuring out the issue?
