Just to continue to with the saga, today I decided to just screw it and reintall, to try to install Grub2 first since upgrading from Grub to Grub2 just would not boot. I installed Grub2, with only /dev/hda plugged in so that /dev/hdb would not be formatted since the Debian installer refuses to NOT repartition disks. Fine. With just /dev/hda plugged in, Grub2 booted just fine. However, as soon as I plugged /dev/hdb in and tried to boot, Grub choked with "error 2". Whatever that is. I used the rescue function, mounted /dev/hdb1, put it in the fstab, had everything working and executed "update-grub". But it still would not boot, "error 2". I tried twice more, Grub and Grub2, no luck. As soon as I plugged the second IDE drive in, Grub would refuse to boot. LILO works. So my server is back to using LILO, because GRUB just won't work. I'm sure it's just my server, being old and crotchity, but I'm lost as to why Grub worked last week, before Grub2 installed the UUIDs and messed things up, but Grub doesn't work this week. I hate it when that happens. Welcome back, LILO. Long time no see.
