And yes, I have considered it and actually tried it with no success. But I thought, why not try again - however, still no success. Then I noticed that anaconda had build the root line as "root (hd2,8)" which looked strange since the boot partition is /dev/sda9. If hd0 would be dev/md then hd1 could be /dev/sda, so I changed all occurrences of (hd2,8) to (hd1,8) and bingo that did the final trick. Tried a last time to chainload into (hd1,8) but got "Geom error", so I am probably stuck with the first solution which is OK until I dump the F10 system. -- Erik. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
