Package: grub
Version: 0.95+cvs20040624-15
Severity: important
Hi,
I installed grub in this way in the MBR:
=========================================================
grub> root (hd0,1)
Filesystem type is reiserfs, partition type 0x83
grub> setup (hd0)
Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... yes
Checking if "/boot/grub/stage2" exists... yes
Checking if "/boot/grub/reiserfs_stage1_5" exists... yes
Running "embed /boot/grub/reiserfs_stage1_5 (hd0)"... 18 sectors
are embedded.
succeeded
Running "install /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0) (hd0)1+18 p
(hd0,1)/boot/grub/stage2 /boot/grub/menu.lst"... succeeded
Done.
grub> quit
=========================================================
but when I reboot I have:
--------------------------------
Grub is loading. Please wait...
Error 17
--------------------------------
According to 'info grub', this is a problem with my partition not been
recognized.
My root partition is /dev/hda2:
$ cat /etc/fstab |grep hda2
/dev/hda2 / reiserfs defaults 0
1
$ ls -l /dev/hda2
lr-xr-xr-x 1 root root 33 2005-02-28 21:05 /dev/hda2 ->
ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/part2
$ cat /boot/grub/device.map
(hd0) /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc
(hd1) /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disc
The boot dir is in the same partition of "/".
I'm using devfs.
The hard disk is a Maxtor:
hda: Maxtor 6Y160P0, ATA DISK drive
This hard disk is set as master: could this be the problem?
I have successfully installed grub in a floppy.
Tell me if you need more info.
Regards,
Mattia.

Ok, I'm closing it then :-)
