Yes Francesco, the comma was a typo on my part. Things are they way I |

have tried to convey, on my machine. |

You are right. What I meant to say is that my / is /dev/hda2 and /boot |
| 14 |
is /dev/hda3 [which should be consistent with what I said]. |

The problem that I have, can be more concisely put this way. Grub won't |
| 17 |
honour real_root=/dev/hda2 from my conf file and after mounting /boot |
| 18 |
kernel does it's business and waits for real_root. Grub/ kernel ? fail |
| 19 |
here and say that they can not detect /dev/hda2 and ask me for the root |
| 20 |
device. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
I type /dev/hda2 by hand, every time I boot, and it happily continues |
| 23 |
booting the rest of the box from there. |
