I am trying to make a CDROM Grub boot disc so that I can boot my system
if the MBR is overwritten or the default partition is removed.
I made an eltorito CD with stage2_eltorito and my menu.lst file in the
CD's /boot/grub using the instructions in the manual at
http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Making-a-GRUB-bootable-CD_002dROM.html#Making-a-GRUB-bootable-CD_002dROM
The CD boots and the blue menu is displayed, but none of the menu items
will boot anything. These are the messages on the screen:
Booting 'Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.18-3-686'
root (hd0,5)
Filesystem type is extfs, partition type 0x83
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-3-686 root=/dev/hda6 ro
[Linux-bzImage, setup=0x1e00, size=0x131990]
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.18-3-686
[Linux-initrd @ 0xfb37000, 0x4a8421 bytes]
savedefault
Error 15: File not found
Press any key to continue...
Pressing a key returns me to the menu. Trying again always results in
Booting 'Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.18-3-686'
Error 25: Disk read error
Press any key to continue...
Can anyone please suggest why Grub does not boot the system?
