 |

Whenever I run | Code: | | grub-install /dev/hda |
, I get the following error:
| Code: | grub-install end_request: I/O error, dev f80, sector 0
Buffer I/O error on devide fd0, logical block |
Isn't fd0 my floppy drive? I'm assuming that the fact that I don't have a floppy drive (I have a laptop with the cd-rom instead), this is what's causing it...
(Maybe my answer is in this thread)
I run | Code: | grub --no-floppy
grub>root (hd0,0)
grub>setup(hd0)
grub>quit |
and it seems to work. But when I eject the cd and reboot, I get the error | Code: | | kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(1,0) |
Any suggestions?

Hi.
If you look at the sticky GRUB Error Collection, you will see that the solution to your problem is most likely to use
| Code: | | # grub --no-floppy /dev/hda |

Yeah, I saw that and tried it about a minute after I posted the original post. I'm now trying to figure out my kernel panic error. Hopefully there is something here or here
