Using linux kernel 2.4.22, booting from hdd, I created a type 0x83 partition on the compact flash, using the full size of the disk. I then formatted it with ext2, copied a minimal linux system to it, chrooted to the partition, and ran grub.
I issed the commands:
root (hdc,0) setup (hdc)
Which executed ok, (grub.conf and the relevant stages are in /boot/grub).
However when I boot the compact flash by selecting hdd2 in the BIOS, (being the third disk), I simply get 'GRUB GRUB' printed to the screen, and no more.
I tried booting the hard disk with the kernel parameter 'hdc=flash', then chrooting to the flash and installing grub, but this doesn't help.
I have had grub running fine on this same compact flash in this same motherboard, with a different linux kernel/system utils/grub version, (0.92 I think), before.
Can anyone point out what's going wrong?
Cheers, MAL
