And nothing else occurs. ... I see that you installed a kernel, that you use the default partitioning, and that you dual-boot MSWindows. I had a mysterious problem on my dual-booted machine after installing a kernel, where Grub could not find stage 2. It turns out that my system had been a hostage to fortune for a long time, as I had made a copy of the /boot partition's bootsector to a file to use from MSWindow's NTLDR's boot.ini, and had not updated that file after an upgrade (and a new grub install). If you're booting directly from grub without using NTLDR, this should not be your problem. -- ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' <mailto:tonynelson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ' <http://www.georgeanelson.com/>
