Description Nicolas Lécureuil 2022-01-28 23:03:17 CET

I tried to do a new install via a netinstall.

It works well but when booting i am in a grub shell.

I have an error message:

.
error:../../grub-core/kern/fs.c:120: unknown filesystem
Entering rescue mode...
grub rescue>

Hi Nicolas

Tell us more...

Did you by chance save the install log by command "bug" before rebooting?
Or can you boot on a live USB and retrieve the install log?
If so please attach, compressed xz

Did you boot the installer in legacy or BIOS mode (set by computer BIOS setting)

What partitions do you have?

@Nicolas: ping
You did not give much information.
Did you overcome the problem, or are you still stuck with it? Did you manage to get to a bootable installed system?
If you have an EFI machine, rEFInd (if offered) is usually preferred to Grub.
