I encountered an 'Error 15' issue at one stage with similar symptoms,
and found it was due to the fact that the shell and the bootloader don't
necessarily number the drives in the same order. ie. The bootloader uses
the BIOS boot priority order, while the shell places hds before sds. So
- If you have set your drive sda ahead of hda in the BIOS boot order,
you'll get:
Grub# Bootloader Grub Shell
HD0 sda hda
HD1 hda hdb
HD2 hdb sda
You can use /boot/grub/device.map to tweak this. ('grub
--device-map=/boot/grub/device.map' will generate one if it doesn't
already exist.)
