Hi all,
I just finished installing FC5 from DVD and the system rebooted. Alas,
I got an error message from grub:
root (hd2,0)
file system type unknown
partition type 0x83
Error 17: Cannot mount selected partition
If I hit a key, it returns me to the grub menu. Selecting the kernel
again redisplays the error message above.
Anyone have any idea what went wrong and how to salvage the install?
I was doing an FC4 to FC5 upgrade.
Thanks...

If you hit c, you can go to a grub command prompt; type geometry (hd2)
and see if you can tell what hard drive it's trying to boot from the
first partition of.
