Hi, I tried installing GRUB on a machine today, and even though I insisted it should boot from the first partition (/boot on /dev/hda1), it stopped all the times right after boot with its own shell prompt. Typing 'root' showed me it was believing "hd0,2" (3rd partition) was the root partition -- hell knows why it thought that (faulty BIOS maybe?). The bottom line is that machine is only bootable through GRUB shell with: root (hd0,0) configfile /grub/grub.conf Anyone knows how to fix this? I tried all its commands I thought I could help (setup, install), with all possible parameters, to no avail. TIA Andre -- Andre Oliveira da Costa
