Try changing it manually to
- Code: Select all
kernel (hd0,5)/boot/vmlinuz-desktop BOOT_IMAGE=linux root=UUID=somelonguuid ro
initrd (hd0,5)/boot/initrd-desktop.img
Assumptions/Notes
o No separate boot partition; /boot is in root /
o (hd0,5) is Mageia partition,
o One hard disk; if more than one, try also with (hd1,5) {and (hd2,5)} in above commands.
o vga=788. remove first. but if your monitor = or > 1024x768 use vga=791 when booted successfully without vga=
o your 'ro' is missing.
o yes, try without resume=xxxxxxxxxxx first. Recheck uuid of swap and ensure it is in /etc/fstab before putting it back if booted without. And correct uuid in /etc/default/grub, update-grub.
o remove noiswd; you most likely won't need it.
Why do we live? To prove not everything in nature has a purpose.
