After selecting to boot from cdrom in the bios it outputs the following:
Welcome to GRUB!
error: hd111 cannot get C/H/S values.
Enetering rescue mode...
grub rescue>
Then I'm at the rescue prompt.
The problem is reproducible with SalixLive or a minimal image I've
created for testing purpose, but so far only on that one machine of
mine. You can acquire the latter here:
http://gaia.homelinux.org/misc/grub-test.iso (4.3M)
I've experimented a bit with ls on the rescue prompt here's the output:
> ls
(hd0)
> ls (hd0)
error: unknown filesystem
If you need anything else, just let me know and I'll try to do my best
to help you.
Regards,
Andreas
