    Oh, another alternative is to boot off the installer to linux rescue, and see what the root device is named…. Who knows, maybe it’s p0c00, or some such, instead of /dev/sdax

  • Thanks Mark

    I tried to type some command below. Could you tell me what I exact type after boot: ?
    (I am not an expert of Linux but, I would like to fix this issue)

    Thanks again

    1. Try my second suggestion – boot from the installer media, choose linux rescue, follow the prompts, then, when you get to a shell, df will show you the mounted filesystems, *and* their names. That’s what has to be on the grub root and kernel lines.

    mark “did I mention, read the grub manpage?”
