Bug Description
Hi,
I installed Ubuntu 8.10 64bits on a PC equiped with a SATA drive and two IDE drives. I choosed manual partitionning of the SATA drive :
- one NTFS partition
- one EXT3 partition /
- one SWAP partition
- one EXT3 partition /home
- one unused partition
IDE drives are ntfs formatted and let unused.
The install process woks well. When rebooting, GRUB gives me an error 2.
After disconnecting the IDE drives, ubuntu booted.
What should I do to have ubuntu booting even when IDE drives are connected ?
Best regards

Please alter the boot order and make sure that the device grub is installed on and is booting off matches the default device that grub is setup to use.
