_______________________________________________________
Details:
Fresh install of Gentoo with new partitions.
Toshiba Satellite M30
/dev/hda1 is /boot.
Grub appears to install fine using grub-install (no errors).
After bios loads, the word GRUB appears immediately in the top left corner of
the screen. This is not the grub> prompt. It is just the single word GRUB.
Pressing any key several times results in beeps. (keyboard buffer fills?)
I have deleted all partitions and repartitioned the drive before fresh
install - same result.
I tried moving my boot partition farther along the drive (/dev/hda9) but same
result.
Deleted grub.conf - same result
Recreated grub.conf - same result
Reinstalled grub-install - same result
After two days I can safely say that nothing I have tried has had any effect
at all.
It seems like Grub just isn't loading. No luck in the forums.
