![]() Cause 2: Use of Windows activation bypassĪ “crack” in circulation used to bypass the Windows activation and Genuine Windows Validation tests for Windows Vista and Windows 7 attempts to inject certain code directly into the boot process.Īs a stock, unmodified BOOTMGR will refuse to load unsigned kernels or Windows kernels that have been tampered or modified, the GRUB for Windows bootloader “grldr” is used instead. Wubi then integrates WUBILDR (a variation of GRLDR and short for “Wubi Loader”) into the BCD or BOOT.INI to chainload Wubi from this virtual disk as a boot-time startup option. Wubi attempts to install Ubuntu to a virtual hard disk stored as a local file on your Windows NTFS/FAT partition instead of assigning it an actual disk partition. The Ubuntu-based “Wubi” is one such example. This error can occur either immediately after such a Linux distribution is installed or at some point in the future when Automatic Update or Windows Update patches the bootloader files or the bootsector itself, breaking the GRLDR-based configuration. While most Linux distribution (such as Debian’s, Ubuntu’s, or Fedora’s) normally install the GRUB or GRUB2 bootloader, the installation routines of some distributions will attempt to set up the Windows bootloader to co-exist with the Linux installation by adding GRLDR either to the BCD menu or by replacing BOOTMGR with GRLDR entirely (and attempting to load it instead). GRLDR is a nickname/abbreviation for the GRUB bootloader for Windows (also known as Grub4Dos or Grub for Dos), and is often used to set up a PC to dual-boot into Windows and one or more Linux (or other *nix-based) operating systems. This error has been known to occur as a result of one or more of the following: Cause 1: Failed Linux installation Symptom 3: “No WUBILDR”Īn error message similar to the ones above is listed, but the Try (hdx, y) message indicates a failed search for a different file (WUBILDR): Try (hd0,0): NTFS5: No wubildrĮrror: Cannot find GRLDR in all devices. Timeout: 5 Symptom 2: “Cannot find GRLDR in all devices” shown at bootĪ variation on the “Cannot find GRLDR” message from Symptom 1, but utilizing slightly different text and additional advice/instructions: Try (hd0,0): NTFS5: 2Įrror: Cannot find GRLDR in all devices. Press space bar to hold the screen, any other key to boot previous MBR. Upon attempting to boot a PC, the error “Cannot find GRLDR.” is shown, possibly accompanied by one or more error messages before and after, like the ones shown in the example below: Symptom 1: “Cannot find GRLDR” shown at boot The error messages, alerts, warnings, and symptoms below are tied to this error. The following information on this error has been compiled by NeoSmart Technologies, based on the information gathered and reported by our global network of engineers, developers, and technicians or partner organizations. ![]()
