Also, please include the output of 'mount' from the host system. It sounds like you created a filesystem dirctly on /dev/sda or /dev/sda contains only logical partitions...or more likely that grub is simply confused. I'm hoping for the latter, but there is a nasty workaround for the former (involving the error message you are receiving) if you've incorrectly partitioned your drive. BTW, is this possibly in a VM? -- DJ Lucas -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
