 1 Seconds to automatic boot.   Press Ctrl-P for entering Monitor.
GRUB Loading stage1.5.


GRUB loading, please wait...
Error 18
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The PXE boot went fine and I installed the GRUB loader on the 40GB HD
as you can see above.
Changes were made according to this guide https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Soekris

However booting afterwards gives me the GRUB error 18 ..... it's a
minimal install on a full ext3 formatted HDrive.

--------------------------- The GRUB manual says:
-------------------------------------------
"Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS.

This error is returned when a read is attempted at a linear block
address beyond the end of the BIOS translated area. This generally
happens if your disk is larger than the BIOS can handle (512MB for
(E)IDE disks on older machines or larger than 8GB in general)."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is my 5501 comBios settings:

ConSpeed = 9600
ConLock = Disabled
ConMute = Disabled
BIOSentry = Enabled
PCIROMS = Enabled
PXEBoot = Enabled
FLASH = Secondary
BootDelay = 5
FastBoot = Disabled
BootPartition = Disabled
BootDrive = 81 80 F0 FF
ShowPCI = Enabled
Reset = Hard

any ideas??
