I need to continue with my installation in shell prompt.How can i accomplish that?
]]>Note: Without --target or --directory option, grub-install cannot determine for which firmware grub(2) is being installed. In such cases grub-install will show source_dir doesn't exist. Please specify --target or --directory message. Also, --target=i386-pc is correct for 64-bit systems, as well.
While going through wiki i have seen
grub-install --target=i386-pc --recheck /dev/csda
but i386 seems to be strange for me..Since i am using 64 bit system.
How should i modify the command to match for 64 bit installation?
It's legacy terminology, or perhaps it refers to the BIOS, not your OS. I presume it means "i386, not Motorola RISC" or something; grub goes way back. Look at the files in the 64-bit package -- they all refer to "usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/" and so on. I've installed grub2 on my 64-bit system according to the wiki instructions and it boots just fine, GPT and all.
