I still get grub Error 24: (this is also with a newer 2.6.36-3 kernel). So I'm stumped again. If you have any other ideas, please let me know. I'm happy to test on this end. I have gone ahead and made the metadata available in case it will help. I have also included the fdisk info as well: http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/bugs/dmraid/dmraid.nvidia/ http://www.3111skyline.com/dl/bugs/dmraid/fdisk-l-info-20100817.txt Thank you for your help. -- David C.
