  • Issue with grub failback

    Posted on

    Hallo,

    I have a primary and a backup boot partition,

    I edited the /etc/grub.conf with the failback option and I want grub to mount the backup boot partition if primary one fails, automatically.

    So, after a reboot and a primary boot partition failure, I hit the error 17 - cannot mount selected partition and the system hangs

    with "press any key..." message, so manual intervention needed .

    Is there a way to bypass the "press any key message" ?

    Thanks in advice,
    Vincenzo
