Hi,
I went through the archives and tried to apply the commands contained there
in. I still can't get grub to hand off the computer to Debian 7.8.0.
The install is "all files in one partition" Indeed, when I boot using the
DVD 1 "rescue mode," I can get the software to open a shell for me on
/dev/sda1, I can "ls" and see the file system. The grub config file is
located at
/boot/grub/grub.cfg
I looked at /boot/grub/device.map and saw the (hd0) mapping looked funny,
so I tried changing it to /dev/sda1, but it still will not pass off the
images.
I saw you can get to a grub prompt. I don't know how to do that with my
setup. The machine just starts and after a few seconds, I get this:
Grub Loading.
Welcome to GRUB!
