Hi, GRUB fails to load stage1.5 on my system. It is an MSI 6163 with two non-booting Maxtor ATA drives connected to the onboard ultra66 controller, and a WDC 20G drive connected to the onboard PIIX controller.
The BIOS mis-detects the geometry of the WDC drive; however, lilo loads ok with the lba32 option. GRUB fails however trying to find the stage 1.5 bootloader with an Error 18. What should I do to track this problem down? One concern is that perhaps lilo is ok with the geometry being wrong because it uses the LBA address on disk and ignores the CHS geometry; but maybe GRUB uses the CHS geometry instead to find the stage1.5, and that's why it doesn't work. Any thoughts or instructions would be appreciated. I have GRUB working on another box that quad-boots Debian, Win2K, OS/2, and Beos, and I love it! Just want to get it working on this one.
