Hi guys, I've got a quick one for you. I'm trying to boot off a compact flash device connected to an IDE to CF adapter (Compact flash is very similar to IDE) the device behave normally when mounted under Linux and I can read and write to it without problem. BUT when I'm trying to boot out of it, it says GRUB hard disk error After looking at the documentation I saw that this is encountered when GRUB is not able to tell the geometry and size of the disk. I then rebooted with a normal hd as boot device, enter the command mode and type in the geometry command for the compact flash device: C/H/S 123/32/63 The number of sectors:250880, LBA it sees all the 5 partitions on it and even identify the first one as being ext2fs (which is true) Question is why grub isn't able to load the second stage of this compact flash card? any help appreciated _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
