It would have been a "very" good idea to have mentioned the error you got or are getting. The way you word things i get the impression the kernel starts to boot, that means grub did its work and you forgot some or other important kernel compile option, just what was the error message.??? BTW; I'm no grub expert, once again i read it to be a kernel compile problem and not a bootloader problem. I've been wrong before however with the error we can go from there. > -- Travis -- If the Linux community is a bunch of theives because they try to imitate windows programs, then the Windows community is built on organized crime.
