Sorry for being unclear, this error is occurring when I use the "root (hd1,3)" command in section 8.4 to make the system bootable. I am aware of the different naming scheme, lfs is on partition sdb4 which (I think) corresponds to hd1,3, although I don't think that is the problem because I get the same error when I root (hd0, TAB so it appears as if GRUB doesn't recognize that hard drive either. The partition set up sda1-Window sdb1-Data sdb2-Ubuntu sdb3-swap sdb4-LFS
What are the contents of your /boot/grub/device.map? I can't remember how this distro does it, but you can use the grub shell to configure grub, which has smart tab completion- it may answer your questions about which drive it sees and how. -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
