I had (have) a lot of problems to get grub to install correctly. Some of them have something to do with the special files it needs to do the install. However, what I found was that it was often better to manually do the grub-install as described in the Rescue chapter (if I remember right) -- or at least the final script for doing the grub install tells you how to do it manually. The advantage of doing it manually is that you can "see" when something goes wrong ... Since HP always likes to fiddle the OS to be non-standard, there may be some additional considerations to get it to work right. One last resort might be to try to install your kernel rpm (assuming you have rpms on your OS). > > > > *************************************************************************** >******** Mail FROM London Borough of Harrow: > Unencrypted electronic mail is not secure and may not be authentic, in > whole or in part.
