Yes. You placed the kernel on an LVM (grub does not support LVM...at
least not LVM2 IIRC) and then come to this list where grub and lilo
users like me are subscribers. Don't complain about grub. grub gives you
far more power than that piece of trash called lilo.
No; the kernel was in a separate /boot filesystem formated ext3. This
was set up by anaconda during the installation.
Any other ideas?
I think your problem could happen if you installed the boot loader into the
active partition and there is a stale boot loader in the mbr.
I don't know...he did say that he restored lilo to get his FC1
installation working again. grub should not have problems picking up its
second stage unless it rests beyond the 1024 cylinder and there is no
LBA support. That leads to the question, where is the partition for the
/boot for the Centos5 kernels located and is there LBA support in the BIOS?
