Grub2 Centos 7 installation from ISO on hard-disk drive
I could not get working a grub2 custom item menu for installing Centos 7 on a VM.
Actual scenario from lsblk command:
1 disk (sda), with two partitions: sda1 mounted on /BOOT, sda2 mounted on / (dev/sda2/centos-root) and the swap (dev/sda/centos-swap).
I have the ISO file loaded here: /home/user/CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-1708.iso.
I edited /etc/grub.d/40_custom as follows:
menuentry 'CentOS7_Test' --class centos --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
load_video
set gfxpayload=keep
insmod gzio
insmod part_msdos
insmod xfs
set root='hd0,msdos1'
if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd0,msdos1 --hint-efi=hd0,msdos1 --hint-baremetal=ahci0,msdos1 --hint='hd0,msdos1' 7ffca464-c438-4591-be4f-4a7d968087cb
else
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 7ffca464-c438-4591-be4f-4a7d968087cb
fi
linux16 /vmlinuz inst.repo=hd:/dev/sda2:home/user/CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-1708.iso
initrd16 /initrd.img
}
Then, I ran the command grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg and rebooted.
Both vmlinuz and initrd.img have been extracted from the /isolinux directory within the ISO and placed into /BOOT directory.
When I select the CentOS7_Test as custom menu item, I finally get this error during installation:
mount: /run/install/isodir/home/user/iso-file-name: failed to setup loop device: No such file or directory
Warning: /run/install/isodir/home/user/iso-file-name has no suitable runtime
May I ask you some hints how to fix the problem?
Thank you.
