Hi there!

My first post after registration!

I've been looking around for quite a while, but haven't found a suitable answer.

I am using a floppy-less Samsung X10 Centrino Laptop, where the best distro I've installed so far is Knoppix 3.2.

My problem is:

I do NOT want to use LILO, but the installation programme only offers this choice.

I've run

grub-install /dev/hda

and created a grub.conf file with the following lines

default=0
timeout=10

title Knoppix 3.2
root (hd0,6)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.21-xfs ro
initrd /boot/initrd.gz

title Windows XP Professional SP1
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1

After rebooting, the system doesn't start: it just goes into the grub prompt.

What is wrong and / or what is missing in the previous grub.conf setup?.

Regards,

Arthur
