Comments/Problems:

The installation seems to complete correctly, but when rebooting, GRUB
doesn't appear. Can't start anything else besides my Windows XP
installation.
I also tried to start the Debian system by the parameter "root=/dev/hda0". I
was not sure which device I actually have to use. I tried hda0, hda, hd0,
hda1, hda5 but nothing worked.
IS this a problem with GRUB or the installation itself?

sincerely

Stefan Zauner
