Sorry for replying very late, but your report is indeed very interesting. For one, you're the only one I know of who is having such issues; on the other hand, I almost considered removing the "bootable" option as it didn't seem to be necessary anymore (well, that was with grub 1 and lenny). Do you have any way of providing some additional debugging, like installing lenny instead? Could you also elaborate a bit on what exactly fails? Probably it doesn't boot, but does it not even come up with a Grub shell, or does it fail somewhere within grub? Thanks a lot, Michael
