Hey there.
I'm trying to create a GRUB floppy disk image (without using a real

I don't know how

We replaced a drive on a linux software RAID 1 array on a customer's

Grub fails to boot with no error, it just hangs:

GRUB is independent of Linux, because GRUB is not part of Linux.

I think that's why Linux (don't have experience with much else) allows
you to use labels as the identifier. Everything else tends to move around
quite a lot, especially if you start unplugging and moving disk

Hi, I have a flash disk that Linux can use as IDE via an adapter, and
sees as /dev/hdc. I am having trouble installing grub on it.
I can boot just fine if grub comes up from the regular HD MBR and then
I do root (hd1,0) setup (hd1) and kernel /boot/vmlinux
[ Please CC replies to me - thanks! ]
Hrm...I seem to have resolved the problem: on the hdc flash disk, I
use root (hd0) which somehow refers to hdc, which seems odd to me, but
seems to work...

This is not Odd. The BIOS reorders your drives when you boot from any
device. So now
the boot drive you mentioned first in your boot order (/dev/hdc) becomes
the first drive (hd0).

There's no 8.0 version of Linux, the kernel (the latest version is pre-2.6.0).
You can find out which version of Linux you're running with uname -r command.

Hi all,
The output of /sbin/grub with NON-curses setups (! HAVE_LIBCURSES,
--no-curses, and last but not least and most important --batch) is
ugly.
Echoes of commands are always far right on the terminal, because of

I have a problem with booting over my new IDE Controller.
Short description: Grub says GRUB at boot time and dies. I have found
nothing appropriate in the list archives or in google :-( I hope someone here
can help me.
is the partition a new reiserfs partition, mkreiserfs recently changed,
make sure you have 0.90-12 of the debian package. if you already have
this maybe try older version of the package.

because you are using a /boot partition you need to specify this when
