Hi people!
Today i changed my partitions a little bit. i removed a logical
partition and created a new primary one. so the numbers of the
partitions in grub werent valid anymore. so i updated, the menu.lst and
installed grub again. but after that, the only thing grub do is to print
"GRUB" in an endless loop to the console...
here is my setup:
/boot/grub/device.map:
(fd0) /dev/fd0
(hd0) /dev/hda
(hd1) /dev/sda
/boot/grub/menu.lst
default 0
timeout 10
fallback 1
title Debian Linux
root (hd1,7)
kernel (hd1,7)/boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda8 vga=1
title Debian Linux Backup
kernel (hd1,7)/boot/vmlinuz.old root=/dev/sda8 vga=1
title Debian Linux Single
kernel (hd1,7)/boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda8 vga=1 single
title Windows 2000
root (hd1,0)
makeactive
chainloader +1
title MemTest86
kernel (hd1,7)/boot/memtest86.bin
all stages are under /boot/grub

/*root of my debian-install*/
(hd1,0) is marked as bootable
i installed grub in (hd1) with the commands:
root (hd1,7)
setup (hd1)
there are no errors shown during setup...
grub> setup (hd1)
Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... yes
Checking if "/boot/grub/stage2" exists... yes
Checking if "/boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5" exists... yes
Running "embed /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd1)"... 16 sectors are
embedded.
succeeded
Running "install /boot/grub/stage1 d (hd1) (hd1)1+16 p
(hd1,7)/boot/grub/stage
2 /boot/grub/menu.lst"... succeeded
Done.
i tried with 0.5.96cvs20010530, 0.90-4 from debian and the cvs of
today. in all versions the same problem.
i use debian unstable.
please answer also to me, because i'm not on the list...
