Is that the whole message? I don't think that's a complaint. You might not see it when it is working, but I'm fairly sure grub always prints that out as it tries to load the kernel you've specified. As far as why it won't boot, it seems like either a bad FS or a bad kernel image. You might want to boot from CD or into some other "safe mode" as check both of those. Years ago, grub had issues booting from reiserfs if tail packing was on (which is it by default). I'm fairly sure this is not the case with modern grub, but it might be something to investigate if your FS and kernel image are healthy. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =.
