[PLUG] IDE drive preventing grub from loading
|
I gave up on this problem a few months ago and decided to give it a
try again today.
I have a computer with a motherboard without IDE slots. I had a very
old PCI-IDE card that worked for a while, but it stopped. I replaced
it. and ever since, my system won't boot with the IDE drives plugged
in. The PCI card's BIOS seems to recognize them OK, but I just get a
blinking cursor after POST when they are plugged in. If I unplug
them, everything is fine.
I am thinking the boot process is looking for grub there and can't find it.
