    Grub problem after installing Debian. (Can't boot!)

    Just installed Debian, when I restart the computer it loads Grub, then promptly hangs with error 21.

    Why did this happen, and what can I do to fix it?

    Which Kernel should I install, I chose the bottom one which was already selected.

    (I am trying to set up a dual boot with XP and Debian)

    Thanks!

    Rich

    Cheers, that's exactly what I did after posting this... (Why not before, I don't know!)

    It was because my BIOS couldn't see my new drive.

    For some reason, GRUB hasn't worked on certain hard drives of mine. Give lilo a try.
