Hi All,
I had redhat 9 installed on 40 GB IDE, i used Symantec Ghost and cloned it on a SATA 80 GB HDD. It stopped at GRUB...
I updated the RedHat9 Installation with Fedora Core 4
my partitions r like this
Disk /dev/sda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9729 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 14 9447 75778605 83 Linux
/dev/sda3 9448 9729 2265165 82 Linux swap / Solaris
#mount - displays following
/dev/sda2 on / type ext3 (rw,defaults)
/dev/sda1 on /boot type ext3 (rw,defaults)
/dev/proc on /proc type proc (rw,defaults)
none on /proc type proc (rw,defaults)
/dev/sys on /sys type sysfs (rw,defaults)
grub.conf -
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE: You have a /boot partition. This means that
# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.
# root (hd0,0)
# kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/sda2
# initrd /initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/sda
default=0
timeout=5
splashimage=(sd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz

title Fedora Core (2.6.11-1.1369_FC4)
root (sd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 ro root=LABEL=/
initrd /initrd-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4.img
Can anyone help me to restore this ??
Thanks and regards to all

Based on the output of mount and your current grub.conf, try the following:
1) Modify your grub.conf like this
[code:1]
timeout 30
default 0
title FC4
root (hd0,1)
kernel (hd0,0)/vmlinuz-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4 ro root=/dev/sda2
initrd (hd0,0)/initrd-2.6.11-1.1369_FC4.img[/code:1]
2) Install grub to the MBR:
[code:1]# grub
root (hd0,1)
setup (hd0)
quit[/code:1]
