From what you have said, it sounds like a BIOS problem more then a grub problem. What I suspect is happening is that the device mapping done by the BIOS changes when you have the MP3 player plugged in. I could see that if you were booting Linux off a USB hard drive, as it would be mapping both drives, and the MP3 player is being mapped first. When booting, grub only knows abouts, and can access, the drives that the BIOS know about. Mikkel -- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with Ketchup!
