Maxim, Please continue to listen to Richard and others. I proclaim no particular expertice here, but I have had grum problems and managed to fix them all eventually. OK, so grub told you that there are 3 partitions on hd0, which for now I'll assume would eventially become /dev/hda though that would need to be verified later. Can you execute the same discovery process for hd1? grub> root (hd1, and hit tab, and then see what it tells you about that drive? good luck, Mark -- [email protected] mailing list
