Hi All,

Ok you all win, are you happy now? ;)

I have installed grub on my desktop at work and now the bloody thing
wont boot (all I get is a grub> prompt). Here are my partition details
and grub.conf

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hda1   *           1         382     3068383+   b  W95 FAT32
/dev/hda2             383        4865    36009697+  85  Linux extended
/dev/hda5             383         395      104391   83  Linux
/dev/hda6             396         461      530113+  82  Linux swap
/dev/hda7             462        4865    35375098+  83  Linux

ahewitt at phoenix:~$ cat /boot/grub/grub.conf 
default=0
timeout=10
#splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Debian (2.6.0-test)
	root (hd0,6)
	kernel /vmlinuz ro root=/dev/hda7
	initrd /initrd.img

title Windows 98
	map (hd0,0) (hd0,0)
	rootnoverify (hd0,0)
	chainloader +1

Could one of you grub gurus please tell me what I am doing wrong here, I
have been trying for hours...

Oh and I have also tried moving the grub.conf to /etc just in case but
that doesn't work either

Cheers,

Adam.
