IDE SATA boot problems
Posted: Sat Aug 01, 2009 12:05 pm
Newbie to LM7 and need help!!
Error 22 on the GRUB loader when I connect the SATA drive to my rig. I have checked the forum about this problem (IDE mixed SATA boot problems) but am out of my depth re. the solution .It seems to have something to do with boot priority or editing /boot/grub/device.map. Present set up on 60Gb IDE,
/dev/sda1 XP 43GB
/dev/sda2 extended
/dev/sda5 ext3 / 12GB
/dev/sda6 linux-swap 600MiB
/dev/sdb 320Gb IDE Data Unable to mount in LM but ok in XP.Get the error details "NTFS signature is missing.Failed to mount 'dev/sdb1'
/dev/sdc 500Gb Back up External drive(USB).
So firstly how do I configure my rig to accept the SATA drive without messing up the boot loader, and secondly, how can I mount /dev/sba.
Would appreciate simple answers if possible.
