Grub-install: error: will not proceed with noted the GRUB reports "installing for "i386-pc platform." I assume this is normal even on an 圆4 sudo blkid However, blocklists are UNRELIABLE and their use is discouraged.

I tried to do this from the LiveCD but another error was thrown (I assume I did not have all of the correct switches or parameters for the sudo mkdir -p sudo mount /dev/sda5 sudo mount -bind /dev sudo mount -bind /dev/pts sudo mount -bind /proc sudo mount -bind /sys /bin/bash -version (I should have written it down, don't remember the exact wording offhand.)īased on the "magic number" bit I did some searching and reinstalling GRUB was suggested on one forum. It does seem to recognize that a GRUB installation exists on the correct partition, but choosing to boot it gives an error about a "magic number" and needing to "load the kernel" first. I downloaded a tool called "Super Grub2 Disk" that claimed it could help boot into systems otherwise inaccessible but it didn't help. System Commander exits to a black screen with a blinking cursor where normally the GRUB menu would appear, and nothing happens. In the case of Q4OS, GRUB is never even reached.

However it IS executing the boot process, so I think it may be a driver issue there.

I think Windows XP and the SSD are not getting along because after the boot logo screen is displayed a BSOD is thrown and the machine resets within a fraction of a second before it can be read. technically one is and one is not, but that's a whole different story. Are the Windows installations booting ok?
