Booting from second hard disk

[Muralidhar Ganga]

Hi,

I have a problem in booting the first entry of /etc/grub.conf, from my
second hard disk.

I have attached the /etc/grub.conf file.
It complains "File not found" when grub tries to boot with
(vmlinuz-2.4.9-21). I have those two files in /boot of second hard disk
/dev/hdb.

I have installed grub onto the MBR of first hard disk as:
/sbin/grub-install /dev/hda.

It shows the image and could not boot with it. But the rest of the
images are fine. I also have a /boot directory on /dev/hda.

Does the GRUB confusing with that ?

Thanks
