GRUB error '21' problem |

hi list,
i am having problems getting GRUB to work (dule booting win2K and redhat 8
on 2 different HD's) and i could really do with some pointers =)
at first (after a default instalition) i was getting a HD Error but i have
modified my grub.conf
here is a list of my partitions:
drive /dev/hda
dev/hda1 NTFS (win2K)
drive /dev/hdb
dev/hdb1 ext3 /boot
dev/hdb2 ext3 /usr
dev/hdb3 ext3 /home
/dev/hdb4 'extended'
dev/hdb5 ext3 /
dev/hdb6 swap
dev/hdb7 ext3 /var
and this is my grub.conf file:
// --- 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 (hd1,0)
# kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hdb5
# initrd /initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hda
default=1
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd1,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Red Hat Linux (2.4.18-14)
root (hd1,0)
kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.18-14 ro root=LABEL=/1
initrd /initrd-2.4.18-14.img
title Windows 2K
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1
// --- end grub.conf
now on boot up i am getting this output:
GRUB Loading stage1.5.
GRUB loading, please wait...
Error 21
both win2K and redhat 8 are woking (if i fix the MBR it will boot to Win2K
normaly and i get to redhat with a boot disc)
if there is any other information i need to post please ask... i am failry
new to linux and lists btw
thanks in advance
tom
