Somewhere in my far distant past I had a dual boot RH 6.0 / MS Windows system.
I now have a dual boot RH 7.3 box.

the Win side was add the following line to fstab:

The drive is a Seagate ST38420A.
I went to www.seagate.com
and downloaded their 'OnTrack' software.
Installed it on the drive.
Now the system boots.
:-)

Bewildered, Chuck

Chuck -- You are trying to write the bootloader itself to a partition, You
should at least try writing it to the Master Boot Record to see if that

Howdy, Y'all:
