I had the same problem on mi computer when i installed ANY 64bit OS In my case it was: when you boot from a CD (any bootable 64bitOS), the bios maps the hard drives in diferent order when you boot from your hd.
When i boot from CD mi SATA for the grub is hd1 (hd1,0) for kernet partition BUT when i boot from the hd the SATA is (hd0,0). Don't ask me why, but it happened to my on win64 & gentooamd64 but not on win32, so copy your boot configuration in grub.conf and make 3 boot options one with hd0, hd1, hd2... I World bet one of those will start I have an MSI, with Nforce3 Ultra chipset, Bios 1.c or something like that. Hope helpful, write back if you need help. -----Mensaje original----- De: Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Enviado el: sábado, 11 de marzo de 2006 2:58 Para: gentoo-amd64@lists.gentoo.org Asunto: Re: [gentoo-amd64] /dev/hda1 won't mount from grub On Friday 10 March 2006 07:13, "Gavin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote about 'Re: [gentoo-amd64] /dev/hda1 won't mount from grub': > Do you mean to 'touch' everything in /boot?

Yes, something along the lines of: find /boot -type f -print0 | xargs -0 --no-run-if-empty touch If you like reiser'd boot, the notail thing is a minor issue. In fact, adding notail can make reiser faster as the expense of storage space (but you'd loose that storage space to any other filesystem anyway...) *I* run ext2/3 on boot because when I installed I didn't know 2 things (1) notail makes grub work or (2) you can tell reiser to use less than 33M for journal. Also, it can make some system recovery easier -- since ext2/3 is the most widely built-in filesystem, among linux kernels. -- "If there's one thing we've established over the years, it's that the vast majority of our users don't have the slightest clue what's best for them in terms of package stability." -- Gentoo Developer Ciaran McCreesh -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
