Have you tried removing the makeactive directive to see if it is
affecting the bios drive concepts?
Not yet Les but will soon. I am thinking about making it just root
(hd1,2) and chainload. I will do that today.
Hi Les, I just reboot to the SATA hard drive after doing two things.
First I found bootable partitions on both drives. The PARTA had the Swap
partition /dev/sda1 bootable :-)
and the SATA had the partition with Linux /dev/sda3 bootable. I erased
both with fdisk and then rebooted to the SATA using this in grub.conf:
root (hd1,2)
chainload
It booted up exactly like it did with the old grub stuff. So I will now
update my grub paper I am still working on. I will upgrade what it takes
to boot up another grub. This is without doubt the best way to boot
several Linux or windows systems with grub.
