(clug-talk) Grub

[Kevin Anderson]

So it's my week to be high maintenance, I think.   I'm having a brutal time getting GRUB installed on a machine here.   I fire up grub, then:   root (hd0,0)    Which is my boot partition. then setup (hd0)    Which I think should work, but it doesn't.     It finds /boot/grub/stage1  & 2  and 1.5     Then it dies with the line Running "install /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0) (hd0)1+16 p (hd0,0)/boot/grub/stage2 /boot/grub/grub.conf"     Error 22 no such partition.   This is a SCSI RAID controller, and I've had no shortage of grief with them in the past, but it's always ended up working in the end.  Except on this one.   Grub can autocomplete the hd0, partition list, so it KNOWS that hd0,0 exists, is ext3.  It's found stage 1 & 2 in previous steps, and grub.conf does exist.   Can anyone shed some light on what I'm doing wrong?  I'm not a grub expert, I basically know that I need to do a couple of steps to make it work, and I do them and then quit.   Thanks Kev.
