I have installed grml-small 0.40 on an usb flash-pen with grml2hd.
When I try to boot it grub answers
root (hd1,0)
Filesystem unknown, partition type 0x7
Error 17: Cannot mount selected partition
Can any of you help me with, how to identify the flash-pen in grub? I expect to make several lines in the grub/menu, and choose between them depending on, if the PC already has a sata-harddisk or a pata-harddisk.

Partition type 0x7 is HPFS/NTFS, looks like you are trying to access
the wrong boot device. :)

Try 'root (hd0,0)' instead - does this what you expect it to?

Yes, that did the trick. Now with (hd0,0) it boots on sdb1, where (hd1,0) tries to boot on sda1 - the sata-harddisk.

Maybee (hd0, ) is just the first disk in the boot-sequence.


Next question to someone : can I get this grub to boot from an iso-file like grml1.0 or even Knoppix or BartPE on the flash-pen ?
