I upgraded my bios and now grub reported "Error 5" (bad partition table) instead of Error 17.
I tried to rewrite it (fdisk /dev/hda --> 'w') but no luck. I think I'll wait grub version 1.0. Bye. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
