452: out of range pointer on attempt to boot Tumbleweed 64 bit

MakeTopSite · 10-02-2023, 02:29 AM

Leap 15.5 grub, command line (reached by pressing C in grub):

Code:

insmod luks
cryptomount hd0,4
set root=(crypto0)
...
set prefix=(crypto0)/boot/grub2
insmod normal
normal

....
Loading Linux 6.5.4-1-default
452: out of range pointer 0xcabb8010
Aborted: Press any key to exit.

(simplified output)

Is it please possible to run TW from Leap's grub ?

I suggest quite possibly not:

Code:

# grep RETT /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="openSUSE Tumbleweed"
# zypse -x grub2
i | grub2 | package | 2.12~rc1-2.1 | x86_64 | OSS

Code:

# grep RETT /etc/os-release
PRETTY_NAME="openSUSE Leap 15.5"
# zypse -x grub2
 l | grub2 | package    | 2.06-150500.27.4   | x86_64 | OSS
 l | grub2 | package    | 2.06-150500.29.3.1 | x86_64 | UpdateSLE

The TW grub2 changelog head has close to 300 lines since and including the July version bump. I use only TW's Grub on multiboot PCs.

Why is the OP using TumbleWeed? I've heard it said several places and by several You Tubers that inly developers and those with an adventurist side should be using TW. I personalty use Leap on the ThinkPad X1 Carbon 9th generation I'm typing my reply on at the moment.

I use TW when I need try something and compare it with how it works in Leap.
You can help openSUSE development by using TW, testing it and reporting bugs.
You will not learn much about linux by fixing it when you are using superstable system because there is no need for maintenance, fixing it
