# Grub-Recovery-SUSE
A helpful guide on how to recover from a broken grub install and also how to repair your suse system with access to the system's yast utility.

Original article from caf4926 on the Opensuse forums.  This guide will teach you how to rescue your grub on SLE 12, Leap and Tumbleweed as well as get access to YAST to fix any broken runlevels and other modifications.

Boot the Rescue from the DVD or the RescueCD. This should be the same Arch as the installation: ie; 32 bit or 64 bit...
Also includes the steps to get YAST working by mounting sys and proc before chroot.

# Grub Recovery

Once the DVD rescue gets to 'login', type: root
from there I run fdisk -l to confirm my HD partitition order.

My root partition is /dev/sda3 in this guide and is where /boot is.

See below for more instuctions for a seperate /boot partition

We need to mount root (for me that's sda3)

Now mount / (sda3) with

> mount /dev/sda3 /mnt

You might need to add the following if there is a BTRFS filesystem with subvolumes

> mount /dev/sda3 /mnt -o subvol=@

For installations with an EFI partition we will mount that as well.  In this example i will use sda1

> mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot/efi

To mount the other devices next do

>mount --bind /dev /mnt/dev

>mount --bind /proc /mnt/proc

>mount --bind /sys /mnt/sys
>

For EFI you need to rbind

>mount --rbind /sys /mnt/sys

Then chroot

>chroot /mnt

Your prompt changes to: Rescue:/>

Here type:

>mkinitrd

Note Mkinitrd has now been depreciated so do the following command:

>dracut -f

Another Note is that you might need to run a different command to rebuild everything.  This seemed needed with custom kernels.

>dracut -f --regenerate-all

Then do

>Traditional Setup:   grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

>EFI Setup:    grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/opensuse/grub.cfg

>grub2-install /dev/sda

Then to reboot you type exit and then reboot as follows.

>exit

>reboot

This also allows one to have access to YAST hence the binding of sys and proc before chroot.

If you use LVM please check this post: https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/478290-article-re-install-grub2-dvd-rescue-3
For Encrypted LVM and in check this forum guide out: https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/536654-how-to-re-install-grub-chroot-for-encrypted-lvm

You can see it all here: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/10573557/Gr...ect/rescue.jpg

N.B: This method should also work from a DVD or the RescueCD and doesnt matter if version type is different.  You can use a Opensuse Leap disc to rescue a SLES install and vice versa.

The discs should be the same Architecture as the installation: ie; 32 bit or 64 bit..USE DVD OR RESCUE CD

# Seperate /boot partition instructions

If you have a seperate /boot partition you will also need to mount that before you chroot.
in this example /boot will be in /dev/sda2

>mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/boot

Continue as above with the mounting of /dev to /mnt/dev.

# Editing Grub Command Line Manualy

This is here for when YAST gets deprecated and users are required to manualy edit grub.  Systemd-boot equivelent will be added in the future.

>sudo nano /etc/default/grub

Then rebuild the initramfs and follow the grub setup like stated earlier.
