=================== BUG #1427: FULL BUG SNAPSHOT ===================
Submitted by: pingwin Project: GNU GRUB
Submitted on: 2002-Oct-16 01:39
Category: Installation Severity: Major
Priority: None Bug Group: None
Resolution: None Assigned to: None
Status: Open Release: 0.90
Reproducibility: Every Time Planned Release:
Summary: Touble installing Grub under Gentoo 1.4_rc1
Original Submission: I used to have done a 'fdisk /mbr' with a bootable windows
floppy. So I can have a fresh mbr to write on. With the fresh install when I get to
installing grub it doesn't work... I am using an ReiserFS for both the /boot and /
partitions.
I am using a 7200 rpm IDE hard drive if that helps.
Here is the error I get
grub> root (hd0,0)
Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x83
grub> setup (hd0)
Error 17: Cannot mount selected partition.
I don't whats wrong w/ it or if I did something wrong.
thanks

I couldn't get /boot to be reiserfs. When I changed it to ext2 it worked just fine.

You are using a too old version. Try the latest.
Thanks,

I also have the same problem installing 1.4_rc1- my configuration is:
two IDE channels on the motherboard; 1st channel is empty, CD-ROM on second channel
master, CD-RW on second channel slave
Maxtor IDE controller, with two channels - 1st channel master is 160 GB maxtor drive,
slave is old IDE drive, 2nd channel empty.
I believe that the first drive on the external controler is hd0 (1st non-CD IDE
device); I have three partitions on it:
/dev/hde1 is a FAT32 partition
/dev/hde2 is a reiserfs partition
/dev/hde3 is a swap partition.
This is the output I get:
grub> root (hd0,1)
Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x83
grub> setup (hd0)
Error 17: Cannot mount selected partition.
