CHR 7.X, cannot boot when using two disks

Tue Mar 15, 2022 11:37 am

No matter what kind of SCSI SATA IDE hard disk I use, or a combination of them, I can't get into the system.
output message:

I just tried upgrading my Dude CHR from v6 to v7 and am having this exact issue. It runs on VMware ESXi. Had to go back to a snapshot on v6.

This issue occurs if the second disk is formatted with "Partition Table" checked.

Apparently it's been fixed in 7.4
*) chr - fixed booting with added additional SCSI disk;

It has not been completely fixed, as this issue happened to me on a 6.49.6 -> 7.4 upgrade.

Just tested on a new 7.4 VM on ESXi 6.7

Hot added a disk to the CHR and formated it as EXT4 with Partition Table enabled.

Rebooted and had no issues.

If I have a chance later I'll try a v6 CHR and upgrade and then add a disk and see if the same thing occurs.

The CHR was imported from the OVA - the OVA will have the boot disk as IDE by default.

Editiing the VM and just quickly adding a new disk with the default option of 16GB adds the second disk as SCSI.
