I've installed Slackware 10.1 on my old box (Pentium 233/128MB RAM/10GB HDD). I created the partitions and installed everything default. It says it's all installed and I just need to reboot, I http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/slackware-linux/54246-grub-error-17-a.html reboot, and when it loads up it says: Code: Verifying DMI Pool Data ....... Boot from ATAPI CD-ROM : Failure ... GRUB Loading stage 1.5. GRUG loading, please wait... Error 17 At which point it stops, and does nothing. I've searched and found that this is linked to GRUB not being able to select the partition to boot? I haven't found anything regarding this matter when installing Slack, so.. does anyone have any idea on how I can fix this? 01-27-2006 #2 Nephroth View Profile View Forum Posts Private Message View Articles Just Joined! Join Date Jan 2003 Posts 26 You can find the formal documentation for GRUB here: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/ Error 17 claims that the partition that you're attempting to boot is of a format that GRUB does not recognize. Make certain that: -The GRUB configuration file points to the correct device AND partition. -Make certain that the partition on the device is formatted and of a format that GRUB can read (such as EXT3). 01-27-2006 #3 budman7 View Profile View Forum Posts Private Message View Articles Linux Guru Join Date Oct 2004 Location Knee deep in Grand Rapids, Michigan Posts 3,800 Using a livecd such as Knoppix or Mepis, could you post the contents of your /boot/grub/menu.lst and the result of "fdisk -l".

We'll email youwhen relevant content isadded and updated. Following Follow Storage If you've administered or customized error 17 Linux long enough you've no doubt created a situation at some point where, during the boot process, that GRUB throws an error. We're going to discuss some of these situations below along with ways to work through them. If a file name or partition in the GRUB configuration file is incorrect GRUB won't be able to find critical files such error 17 cannot as the Linux kernel. For instance if the root directive points to something other than the /boot directory GRUB will throw one of the following errors:
Error 17: Cannot mount selected partition
Error 27: Unrecognized command
Error while parsing number
Cannot mount selected partition
If the GRUB configuration file is completely missing you will see the following:
grub>
If you find yourself at this prompt you can find a list of available commands by hitting the tab key. The first thing that you are going to want to do in any of these cases is check and make sure that your root directive is correct. To do this, at the grub prompt, use the find command to locate the GRUB configuration file. Your search would begin something like this:
grub> find (hd0,0)/grub/grub.conf
where hd0,0 is the 1st hard disk and the 1st partition on the hard disk. Repeat the process using the various partitions on the 1st disk (hd0,1 hd0,2) and so on until you find th
