I guess you mean ext3. I know no efs3, only efs (of SGI - partially supported by linux), which IIRC isn't supported by grub. > > I don't know if this is relevant, but I don't see an e3fs_stage1_5 file in > /boot/grub.

You'll first have to describe with much more details what you do and what happens. If you cold boot into linux, then e.g. run /sbin/reboot, linux should boot through the BIOS etc., which should show its own messages before starting grub. So if it's not, it's a bug either in linux or in the BIOS. Do other OSes reboot well? -- Didi _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
