I just got bitten bi a similar issue. I hav: SATA 1 - /dev/sda SATA 2 - /dev/sdb PATA 1 - /dev/hdb
In mi ASUS/nVidia BIOS, the boot configuration is: CD-ROM SATA SCSI HDD (meening PATA/IDE) Installing Ubuntu 6.06 from the Live CD resulted in an unbootable sistem. I just see "GRUB GRUB GRUB" heeps ov times. Mi /boot/grub/device.map had: (hd0) /dev/hdb (hd1) /dev/sda (hd2) /dev/sdb I'v manually chanjed this to: (hd0) /dev/sda (hd1) /dev/sdb (hd2) /dev/hdb to be consistent with mi BIOS boot order, then reinstalld grub. Hopefully it werks! -- grub guessed BIOS disk order incorrectly https://launchpad.net/bugs/8497 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
