Hello everybody,

On a fresh install using 2005.0 universal-install CD.

Boot hangs with

Grub loading Stage1.5
Grub loading please wait.

There's lots of advice on the web but nothing works so
far.

So far changed the boot order in the BIOS.
grub-installed to every available partition. Toggled
the bootable flag w/ fdisk. Altered grub.conf; here's
the latest iteration:

default 0
timeout 30
title=Gentoo
root (hd0,1)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/hda4
title=WinXP
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
makeactive
chainloader +1

I'm using a Maxtor 120G drive w/ four contiquous
partitions: /dev/hda1, 60G for WinXP; /dev/hda2, 32M
for gentoo /boot; /dev/hda3, 512M, swap; /dev/hda4,
60G, /. 

A clue? When rebooting(used the CD to boot and chroot)
a red flagged error flashes by: Failed to shut LVM
down.

Appreciate any help
