Comment 27 for bug 8978

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Greetings, and THANKS for your reply!

I have some things I MUST do in a couple of my Windose (sic!) programs, then I will probably try to install Ubuntu AGAIN. But this time, I will try to install it on my primary, or "C" drive, not an external hard drive.

Wish me luck!

Yours truly,

Lloyd

Subject: [Bug 8978] Re: Grub - Error 21 returned

hi!

After installing ubuntu 7.10 with the live installation cd, i also
received the message "error 21". Ubuntu was installed on the second IDE
drive (WD 80G), while first disk is SATA2 (WD 250G) with win xp
installed.

I tried installation with sata disk unpluged and i didnt work, then i
tried with pluged-in sata and it didnt work either.

IDE disk is recognised in win xp and working fine, but strange, BIOS
 has
some problems with this. Even after entering the number of heads,
sectors, cylinders, IDE disk in BIOS is shown as none!?

Anyway, i'm not some computer expert, but posting here with hope that
developers will no forget to focus on this bug ;), becouse i would
really like to use ubuntu.

MSI p965 neo
intel core 2 duo
SATA2 WD
IDE WD
