Resolved.
I upgraded the host OS kernel to 2.6.10, ran the grub command and it was successful.

Hi all,
I've ran into a strange problem with grub, following the 6.0 LFS instructions I compile grub and tryed to install the bootloader, etc..
This is what I get
GNU GRUB version 0.96 (640K lower / 3072K upper memory)
[ Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For the first word, TAB
lists possible command completions. Anywhere else TAB lists the possible
completions of a device/filename. ]
grub> root (hd0,2) Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83
grub> setup (hd0) Segmentation fault
root:/sources/grub-0.95#
The system is a Dell Power Edge 2850, with a PERC 4e/Di controller, there are 4 146gb disks, 3 are configured for raid5 and 1 as hotswap.
The partition layout is as follows, this is from running fdisk and printing the partition table:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disk /dev/sda: 293.3 GB, 293391564800 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 35669 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 766 35000 274992637+ 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 35001 35669 5373742+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda3 * 1 765 6144831 83 Linux
Partition table entries are not in disk order
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The lfs partition is on /dev/sda3, starts at the begining of the disk, /dev/sda1 is the host operating system which I built LFS on, which is Fedora Core 3 using 2.6.9 kernel.
I'm at a loss, has anyone ran in to this sort of problem before?
