I installed a SATA drive (no RAID, just a single SATA drive) and installed FC6T1 on it tonight, but my system (Abit AV8) won't boot from it. I can configure BIOS to see the drive and elevate its priority in the boot order, but I get nothing on boot. At the point I should see the "grub loading" message, the boot process just hangs with no grub message displayed. It's as if there's no master boot record. I have a single IDE drive (hda) and, now, the single SATA drive (sda) installed in the system. For the FC6T1 install, I copied the DVD iso image onto hda (at /tmp/fc6, to be precise) and installed using the linux askmethod/hard drive procedure. Seemed to install fine. I can still boot from the IDE drive (FC5) after rearranging the boot device order in BIOS, and from FC5 I can mount the sda1 (/boot) and sda2 (/) partitions. All the FC6 stuff is present and accounted for in those partitions. I've tried disabling hda altogether in BIOS, but it didn't help -- still no boot from the SATA drive. Is there a way to determine if a MBR is present on the SATA drive? Are there any other things I should try?
