fresh rh9 install wont boot - partition problems? Hi Guys
I just set rh9 up on a machine with 2 ide drives on the primary channel and
a cdrom on the secondary
I manually configured the partitions with disk druid as follows:
hda:
/boot 200mb (1st partition on drive)
/ 7gb
/home 10gb
swap 2gb (it made this an extended partition)
hdb:
/clients
/data
/mp3
the install went fine but the system wont boot - after the bios screens it
just stops saying "GRUB" or "LI" (I tried Grub and Lilo as boot loaders). I
tried the "force primary partition" option when creating /boot, I tried
linux rescue and used fdisk to make /boot the boot partition... that didnt
seem to work either. I'm sure it's some terribly common, rtfm-type newbie
thing I've done wrong, can anyone help?
cheers
