I have two hard disks (a SATA on channel 1 master and a ide on channel 2 slave) - but when booting up linux after an install of linux to the mbr on the sata i can't boot into grub but just a cryptic line of code. when i try booting from a rescue disk and doing a grub-install /dev/sda i either get a response saying i don't have permission to do so, or that there is no /dev/sda device (not that it's not mounted, that it doesn't exist!).
thanks Imran
