Grub starts in shell, not loading OS rh8

rh8

Installed a rh8 system on an old compaq deskpro EN and had some problems installing. Diskdruid used the /dev/hdc as main partitition. On earlier installations it has allways used /dev/hda. Swap installed on /dev/hdc2.

When booting without the boot diskette Grub does not load the linux OS, but starts with the grub-commandline. Booting from diskette goes ok.

I paste in here the /boot/grub/grub.conf, and from the bood diskette syslinux.cfg

Do anyone have suggestions for how to configure grub.conf?



This is /boot/grub/grub.conf

# grub.conf generated by anaconda

# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE:  You do not have a /boot partition.  This means that
#          all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /, eg.
#          root (hd0,0)
#          kernel /boot/vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hdc1
#          initrd /boot/initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hdc
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,0)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Red Hat Linux (2.4.18-14)
   root (hd0,0)
   kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-14 ro root=LABEL=/
   initrd /boot/initrd-2.4.18-14.img

Looks for me normal


This is /mnt/floppy syslinux.cfg


default linux
prompt 1
display boot.msg
timeout 100
label linux
   kernel vmlinuz
   append initrd=initrd.img ro  root=/dev/hdc1
