Do you realize (hd1,0) actually refers to /dev/sdb1 or something like that? do you actually have your boot partition on the second disk? I would get Knoppix - Linux on a CD - and examine your disk setup with that. (You can do the same with the rescue CD, but I find Knoppix much easier to use.) -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
