First, to those of you who's seed found fertile ground and sprouted, 
Happy Fathers Day.

Now a simulation of the boot screen I am getting after installing the 
binary-hybrid.iso from a dvd, twice as described.
====================================
loading Grub
Welcome to Grub2

error; out of disk
entering rescue
Grub  rescue>
=====================================
At which point you can type anything you want, command not found,
except for ls, which oddly returns

(hd0) (hd0(dos32)) (fd0) 
(or something similar, I can make a paper copy and bring it in if it 
would mean anything) is returned.

I have now done 2 installs, one with the drive (a 500Gb Maxtor)
jumpered for "CS" with the 80 wire cables Master connector plugged into 
it, nothing on the slave connector, done in graphical mode and, and once 
with the jumper set for Master, and the Master connector on the 80 wire 
cable plugged in and an empty save connector.  On reboot, including a 
powerdown reboot, I get the above screen.

There is only one error reported at install, something about not being 
able to do something at $1222xxx, reported instantly after hitting the 
dvd to load syslinux, but the rest of the install proceeds normally, 
including letting me manually configure the network after ipv6 and dhcp 
fail, timing out because there is not a dhcp server running anyplace on 
my host file based local network on this side of the router.

384megs of sdram, memtest86 says its healthy.

So I am bummfuzzled.

Is this something anyone else has seen?

Cheers, Gene Heskett
