Here's a question for you. I Debian earlier on a machine at home that has SATA drives. The SATA drives are configured as IDE-3 and IDE-4 Master's. It installs fine, but when it boots, GRUB apparently can't find the config file. It defaults to a text mode prompt GRUB>. It I enter
root (hd2,0) configfile grub/grub.conf it pops up the normal graphical GRUB menu and boots fine. Internally, (hd2,0) is /dev/sda1. I tried setup (hd2) and that didn't make any difference. So, it seems that GRUB can read the MBR from the drive, but can't or won't look for config file on the same drive. Have you seen anything like this? -- --Luke CS Sysadmin, Montana State University-Bozeman -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
