Grub has made a guess as to which drive to call hd0. Perhaps it guessed |
37 |
wrong? |
38 |
running: |
39 |
grub |
40 |
find /boot/grub/stage1 |
41 |
will tell where grub sees the specified file |
42 |
|

Unrelated thought: |
45 |
if you had an inode_size problem the error would be: |
46 |
|
47 |
grub> setup (hd1) |
48 |
Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... no |
49 |
Checking if "/grub/stage1" exists... no |
50 |
|

Error 2: Bad file or directory type |
