Oh wait, I left something out: that should be
grub-install --recheck /dev/hda

I ran "grub-install --recheck /dev/hda"
Result: It works! It boots into linux without having to use commands
at the grub prompt (which I was getting good at :-) )
I don't see any difference in the grub.conf file. However the
device.map file is different.
It was:
# this device map was generated by anaconda
(fd0) /dev/fd0
(hd0) /dev/hda
(hd1) /dev/hdb
Is now:
# this device map was generated by anaconda
(fd0) /dev/fd0
(hd0) /dev/hda
Any idea what happened to hdb?
I booted into knoppix again. It shows hda1 and hda2 on the
desktop. I can mount hda1 and open a window to see its contents,
which is the same as what Fedora shows as hda
However, knoppix will not let me mount hda2 even though it shows an
icon on the desktop. The error statement says
"mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda2
missing codepage or other error"
Does knoppix see a partition (hda2) which is missed by Fedora?
