Using the live cd is a good idea you edit the files that way also. Check out grub.conf and make sure the root is right. From the FC2 systems I see this comment left by anaconda when it wrote the grub.conf # root (hd0,0) # kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/ida/c0d0p5 # initrd /initrd-version.img #boot=/dev/ida/c0d0 [Not sure if the G4 uses /dev/ida or some other thing.] modprobe.conf has this line alias scsi_hostadapter cpqarray [EMAIL PROTECTED] mgt]# lsmod | grep cpqarray cpqarray 23205 5 It's possible that grub can find the boot info but once the it starts to mount stuff it dies? Not sure but make sure it knows abount the cpqarray driver atleast. -Mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
