BIOS sees them as one drive. A working F7 sees them as two drives and
as one under the /mapper dir.
I could see this to be a BIOS problem if nothing loads, but GRUB does
load at least so far as that it gets to the grub> prompt. So it is not
that BIOS is confused. It is purely a GRUB issue.
You aren't done with bios when you get the grub prompt. Grub does not
know anything about disk drivers and must make bios calls to load the
kernel.
Exactly. I am going to see if it is a kernel problem. Grub really did
work on FC6 and that might have been because it has a different kernel.
I have the last good old kernel still bootable on this f7 and will try
it later.
If you have a grub prompt, the kernel hasn't been loaded yet and can't
be the problem.
