Hochstatter GRUB I also tried upgrading the kernel to 2.6.9-1.678_FC3. Now I get a little more information when I try booting from a Grub boot floppy: Booting 'Fedora Core 2.6.9-1.678_FC3' root hd0,1 Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x83 kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.678_FC3 ro root=/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 rhgb quiet Error 22: No such partition Press any key Any other suggestions? Thanks, Paul
