Hi, I only really moved over to grub from lilo recently and it had been working great. Until now: for some reason, it fails to boot images with an Error 15 but the images are definitely there and work if I press 'c' and type in the same kernel command as is in /boot/grub/menu.lst (tab-completion even works!):
Relevant bits of /etc/grub/menu.lst: title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.13.2 root (hd2,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.13.2 root=/dev/hdc2 ro savedefault boot title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.11.8 root (hd2,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.11.8 root=/dev/hdc2 ro savedefault boot (plus other similar kernels). $ ls -l /boot/vmlinuz-2.* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1331044 2005-05-07 13:31 /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.11.8 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1387114 2005-10-02 08:51 /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.13.2 This is grub 0.95+cvs20040624-17 on Debian. Bizarrely, I built a kernel a while back and grub couldn't see that unless I put it in the root directory, even though /boot is on the same partition. Now it will only boot the rarely used version of windows without having to type the kernel bit by hand! The images are on the third IDE hard disk: $ cat device.map (hd0) /dev/hda (hd1) /dev/hdb (hd2) /dev/hdc and grub is installed on the mbr of /dev/hda. It can obviously see the images because it works by hand! I couldn't see anything similar to this in the archives, apart from Error 15 meaning that the images aren't there but they blatently are! It does work but requires more human intervention than I'd like! Any clues for what to check?
