Hi Masood
Thanks for the reply.
I am using UUIDs in /boot/grub/menu.lst and /etc/fstab.
I've just spent afew hours installing Kubuntu 8.04 on my 2nd PC with an
identical mobo and 1 x IDE and 1 x SATA hd.
First istall placed everything on the IDE Primary Master 1st partition.
Second install placed "/" on Prim Master 1st partition and "/home" on
IDE Prim Master 2nd partition.
With or without SATA HD attached ( it was attached during install) I get
error 15 message on boot.
If the SATA HD is attached I get the Grub menu, then the message.
Without the SATA, no Grub menu but error 15 message.
I have now installed Mandriva Powwrpack 2008 which runs fine, no
problems and still uses /hdXX and /sdxx.
After much googling, I'm convinced that there are problems with some
mobos when both IDE and SATA hds are attached.

Hi Bill
Try replacing root=/dev/sdb1 with root=UUID=YOUR_ROOT_UUID
It is the default in Ubuntu and I think it should solve the problem.

Notice the /dev/sdb1 which indicates that the IDE hd is the SECOND hd.
