archlive, and grub/menu.lst contains this:root (hd0,0) kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/3525ec64-d3dc-4bec-b9d2-172633f4a3a4 ro initrd /boot/kernel26.imgBut, I get this error message in grub:root (hd0,0) Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83 kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 Error 15: File not found Press any key to continue...Any ideas? I know it has to be something small...Also, a side question, why format /boot as ext2 instead of say something like ext3? What does ext2 error 15 file not found windows 7 have over ext3?♦ Last edited by Ek0nomik (2008-10-03 22:06:19) Offline #2 2008-10-03 18:30:26 Ek0nomik Member From: Wisconsin Registered: 2008-05-01 Posts: 7 Re: [SOLVED] Grub Error 15: File Not Found One more thing, when I go into grub and type:root (hd0,0)and root (hd0,1)they both return the same thing:Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83.Since one is ext2, and the other ext3, shouldn't it say something different?

Grub sees both as ext2.As to the problem at hand: If the UUID points to your boot partition there is no need to have /boot in front of the kernel/initrd. This makes it look for a /boot directory inside of the /boot partition, which obviously doesn't exist.So it should just read:root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/3525ec64-d3dc-4bec-b9d2-172633f4a3a4 ro initrd /kernel26.img Last edited by SkonesMi
