Quoting Stuart <stuart@xxxxxxxxxxx>:
At which point does it say that?
Do you get as far as the grub menu?
Partition type 0x5 is an 'Extended' partition. (/dev/sda4 or
equivalent, usually) - this suggests to me that your grub.conf is
incorrect, probably containing a line similar to
root (hd0,3)
But you can see this (I hope) by hitting 'e' at boot time, assuming you
get as far as the grub countdown/menu.
Grub.conf is as follows:
root (hd1,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.x86_64 ro
root=UUID=1acff5c4-7a23-414a-9e04-f356c64e24bd rhgb quiet
initrd /initrd-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.x86_64.img
device.map is as follows:
(hd0) /dev/sda
(hd1) /dev/sdb
When it tries to boot, I get the following (it skips the grub menu --
it's the only install there):
root (hd1,0)
fs type unknown, partition type 0x5.
menu.lst is pretty much the same. as the grub.conf posted above. I
went in and put in a 10 second delay on the menu.lst. I confirmed that
it magically shows up in the grub.conf once I put it in the menu.lst.
I also confirmed that i no longer need the old /home partition that
I've been keeping around because I couldn't be sure what it was. :-)
Maybe i'll move that down to /dev/sda and make it the /boot partition
or something.
