Prima facie it seems, your CentOS did not install completely i.e. it's grub seems to be broken. What you are likely experiencing is the first stage of grub (from your Ubuntu install) trying to find the Ubuntu boot files and not finding them. I would suggest that you use a rescue CDROM/USB stick and repair the grub with "grub-install" *or* edit the grub line to point to filenames installed by CentOS (vmlinuz image and the initrd ramdisk file). If this seems to be a daunting task then reinstall CentOS and watch for any errors (if any). Good luck. -- Arun Khan _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
