Here is my grub menu.lst:
title Libranet GNU/Linux, kernel 2.4.23 NEW
root (hd0,5)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.23 root=/dev/hda6 ro hdc=scsi hdd=scsi vga=792
savedefault
boot
title Libranet GNU/Linux, kernel 2.4.23 (single user mode)
root (hd0,5)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.23 root=/dev/hda6 ro hdc=scsi hdd=scsi single
savedefault
boot
title Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.4.22-1-386
root (hd1,5)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.22-1-386 root=/dev/hdb6 ro hdc=scsi hdd=scsi savedefault
boot
The above Debain GNU/Linux entry will boot, but stops with an error message "cant find image, please amend root= entry to the correct root image" or words to that effect. Here is the question:
Given the above, how can I get Debian to boot? cd into the Debain / (while running Libranet) and run lilo? Modify in some unknown to me way the above grub entry?
I have removed the hdc=scsi entries. I have changed values for (hd1,5) and /dev/hdb6 on the chance that my understanding was flawed. I have found a different source for the iso image and downloaded/burned/loaded it.
The Installer worked very well, except it seems to fail in allowing me access to my new shiny base system!!! Talk about security! The distro was sarge, ext3 was chosen for file systems, hdb6 /, hdb7 /home, hdb5 /var (as reiserfs). All partitions seem written to with out errors (as checked out from Libranet).
