Guys, To close this thread, I was barking up the wrong tree thinking that this was a grub problem. Turns out there was a conflict between my NVidia 8800GT PCIe card and a 3ware 965SE PCIe RAID card. Once I move the NVidia to a different slot, the box booted normally. scott _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
