惠普Linux系统启动光驱,HP ProLiant MicroServer Gen8使用Super GRUB2 Disk从TF卡启动光驱位安装的Debian 8.3...

简介

MicroServer Gen8属于HPE(Hewlett Packard Enterprise，惠普企业级产品)而不是HP，MicroServer Gen8的支持页面(如驱动下载)在HPE，官网首页是http://www.hpe.com,不是http://www.hp.com。

HPE大约从2015年起变更了服务支持策略，普通驱动可以无限制下载，但是BIOS、SPP更新等可能需要用主机序列号注册、且在主机质保期内方能下载，超期就只能等待别人搬运分享了。

MicroServer Gen8在AHCI模式时，五个SATA和普通主板的功能一样，唯一不同的是MS G8的BIOS不能选择用哪个硬盘启动。

它会尝试从SATA1引导，如果SATA1没有连接硬盘，则尝试从SATA2引导，以此类推。

可是SATA1~4是硬盘笼子；通常人们都是将4个3.5寸仓库盘放到笼子里面；然后通过SATA5连接一个2.5寸硬盘(放置在9.5mm光驱位置)做系统盘。当五个硬盘都连接时，BIOS仅尝试从SATA1引导，结果出现引导失败。

解决方法就是通过安装一个U盘或MicroSD卡，从而间接引导SATA5接口上的系统盘。

网上给出的方法都是引导Windows系统的，而我们安装的如果是Linux系统的话，则无法简单的使用这些方法来引导系统的。

自己探索了一下，通过使用Rufus来使用并且修改Super GRUB2 Disk的方式来启动Debian的方法。

解决方法

1.安装Debian Linux系统

只插上光驱位置上的硬盘，然后安装Debian Linux系统，只有这样，才能正常安装系统，否则会出现无法安装到正确的磁盘上面。

2.开启SATA AHCI模式

通过 Intelligent Provisioning安装根本就找不到 tf卡(在 bios中可以把默认的 Dynamic HP Smart Array改成 SATA AHCI模式后就可以顺利安装了，但这样 raid功能也没了)

3.下载必须的软件

下载Super GRUB2 Disk最新的镜像文件，官网为http://www.supergrubdisk.org/，一定要下载hybrid版本。

下载Rufus最新的版本，官网地址为https://rufus.akeo.ie/

也可以在本网站下载我使用的版本Super GRUB2 Disk，rufus-3.10

4.安装Super GRUB2 Disk到SD卡

按照下图的步骤处理：

如果使用2.8.x版本，参考下图(注意，如果使用最新的2.0.4版本的Super GRUB2 Disk，只能使用3.11.x版本的Rufus)

Rufus 2.8.886

只有如下选项才能保证可以在Windows中可以正常访问修改Super GRUB2 Disk已经安装到SD卡上的内容。

如果使用3.10.x版本(已知Rufus 3.11.1678写入的数据无法引导系统,只能使用3.10.x版本)，参考下图

Rufus 3.10.1647

只有如下选项才能保证可以在Windows中可以正常访问修改Super GRUB2 Disk已经安装到SD卡上的内容。

5.增加Gen8的启动配置文件

在刻录好的SD卡的\boot\grub(Super GRUB2 Disk 2.02)或者\boot\grub\sgd(Super GRUB2 Disk 2.04)目录下创建一个名为Gen8.cfg的配置文件，内容如下：

# Super Grub Disk - Gen8.cfg

set option_title=$"Gen8"

function run_option {

echo "Starting Gen8 ..."

#for uuid

#search --set=root --fs-uuid 763A-9CB6

#for file

search --set=root --file /boot/grub/grubenv

set prefix=(${root})/boot/grub

normal

}

#SuperGrubDisk-Gen8.cfg

setoption_title=$"Gen8"

functionrun_option{

echo"Starting Gen8 ..."

#foruuid

#search--set=root--fs-uuid763A-9CB6

#forfile

search--set=root--file/boot/grub/grubenv

setprefix=(${root})/boot/grub

normal

}

一般建议是通过指定磁盘的uuid的方法来启动系统，如果能够确定系统磁盘上存在一个唯一的文件，也可以通过简单的指定文件的方法来让GRUB2来搜索的方式找到启动磁盘。

对于 Super GRUB2 Disk 2.02

修改\boot\grub\main.cfg，在

process_main_option "${prefix}/language_select.cfg"

这行代码下面增加

process_enable "${prefix}/Gen8.cfg" rootmenu

对于 Super GRUB2 Disk 2.04

修改\boot\grub\sgd\main.cfg，在

process_main_option "${sg2d_directory}/language_select.cfg"

这行代码下面增加

process_enable "${sg2d_directory}/Gen8.cfg" rootmenu

并且打开被注释掉的set timeout=10项目，让系统自动启动，否则需要手工点击一下回车。

修改后的内容如下：

Super GRUB2 Disk 2.02 main.cfg

6.插上SD卡，断电，然后冷重启

7.常见问题

注意：如果安装升级的是ubuntu 20.04.1，系统启动的时候，会出现error: symbol 'grub_calloc' not found。

如下图：

但是奇怪的是，如果在系统启动的时候选择Detect and show boot methods，显示出的任何菜单，都可以正常启动系统，如下：

这个问题是因为ubuntu 20.04.1系统使用的是新版本的grub2引导系统，启动配置信息需要进行调整，修改我们创建的\boot\grub\Gen8.cfg(Super GRUB2 Disk 2.02)或者\boot\grub\sgd\Gen8.cfg(Super GRUB2 Disk 2.04)，内容调整为如下：

# Super Grub Disk - Gen8.cfg

set option_title=$"Gen8"

function run_option {

echo "Starting Gen8 ..."

#for uuid

#search --set=root --fs-uuid 763A-9CB6

#for file

insmod xfs

search --set=root --file /boot/grub/grubenv

configfile /boot/grub/grub.cfg
