Hi all, I'm having some problems with setting up GRUB as a bootloader for my machine.
The setup: /dev/hde1 is /boot, a 50M ext2fs partition /dev/hde3 is /, about 26G of XFS My motherboard is told to boot off of the extra IDE controller first, which works. LILO works with this, it has: root=/dev/hde3 boot=/dev/hde1 int /etc/lilo.conf and this all works fine. The relevant GRUB configs: /boot/grub/device.map: (fd0) /dev/floppy/0 (hd0) /dev/ide/host1/bus1/target0/lun0/disc (hd1) /dev/ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0/disc (hd2) /dev/ide/host2/bus0/target1/lun0/disc (using devfs on a 2.4 kernel, hd1 means /dev/hde) /boot/grub/menu.lst: default 0 timeout 5 color cyan/blue white/blue title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.4.13-xfs root (hd1,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.13-xfs root=/dev/hdc3 ro title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.4.13-xfs (recovery mode) root (hd1,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.13-xfs root=/dev/hdc3 ro single I've followed the instructions that came with GRUB, but no matter what I try, whenever the machine boots, I get GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB... just streaming down the screen. I've searched the docs and Google, and get no hits. This doesn't seem to be documented anywhere. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://spacepants.org/jaq.gpg <Mithraal> I reserve the right to be wrong. -- #spankyhouse -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
