Gentoo still starts up normally. It always has... It is windows that doesn't start anymore. It gives the error 18 message. I forgot to mention it (for me it's normal gentoo still works :) ) I don't have a diskette-drive in my pc. As you can see in my first post, I have used ext3 for my /boot partition. It means that I can rewrite my mbr when mounting it from a livecd... I do have a windows install cd. I tried to do a fixmbr, but the install halted when inspecting my hardware (so I never got a windows console). I think it's because I use a software raid for my other partitions... > Please note that your release of GRUB just might, might mind you, be a > customized version of GRUB that differs slightly from the vanilla > version available from the appropriate locations.
