Re: Unable to boot - Stuck at "GRUB"

what does your grub.conf look like?

you should find it at /boot/grub/grub.conf

thats probably where the problem is...

does it get to the point where grub allows you to pass options to it?
(should have a splash screen, with boot images to load, probably only
one option) but you can edit it by pressing 'e' and trying other
options.
