Without /dev/hdb installed, what do you get when you boot with boot disk, then start "grub" and execute "find /boot/grub/grub.conf" in GRUB shell? As a second test, also without /dev/hdb installed, what do you get for grub-install --recheck /dev/hda ; cat /boot/grub/device.map ? > In fact, when the system was originally installed, it ONLY had hda, > and it worked fine and booted fine.
