I'm glad to inform you that the first alpha installer for the 3.0

I installed gNewSense 3.0 alpha1. The installation apparently went smooth. But when I re-booted my computer to start the newly installed system, GRUB threw up an error -- "Error 15" and stalled. I am not really sure what is the problem.

I ran a "bootinfoscript"[1] from a live session and the RESULTS.txt file that the script produced is attached with this email.

What must be done to solve this problem ? Should I re-install grub ? If so how should I do it ?

I thank you.
