Hi Robert, I altered grub-install to not fail if the partmap module could not be determined, and then rebooted. I was put straight into rescue mode, and 'ls' only showed (hd0) (hd1) (hd2)... so I guess at least 'pc' is necessary for Linux software RAID setups. After editing the script to fall back to 'pc' if partmap_module could not be determined, I rebooted again. This time I got the menu, however it had (what appeared to be) only a single, blank entry. Hitting enter or pressing 'e' locked up the system. I could press 'c' to get to a command prompt, however. Upon doing so, I did 'ls' and could see the individual partitions insead of just the disk devices. However I didn't know what else to do, so I booted back up with grub 1 and sent this message. -- Sam Morris http://robots.org.uk/ PGP key id 1024D/5EA01078 3412 EA18 1277 354B 991B C869 B219 7FDB 5EA0 1078
