I booted live with gparted and also with http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?id=10056 my #! 9.04 cd's to check the partition tables and edit stuff4) I've saved menu.1st to a back up usb flash (I've actually saved the whole grub folder too) so I can post that too...5) Partition table is in order and, again, everything CAN be mounted and viewed (not sure about the swap).6) Everything appears normal to me-(DUH, pebkac error) but I still get this *GRUB Loading stage1.5., GRUB loading, please wait...

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 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 fo

I booted it up and began setup, but had to leave for an appointment and turned off the computer (I had not completed setup, which is what I think the problem stems from). When I came back and turned it on again, the computer began to load GRUB stage1.5, only to encounter error 17 (Cannot mount selected partition). I have restarted a few times to no avail, as each time the computer stops at this same point. This is my first Linux experience, so it would be accurate to say that I am a bit lost. Any help would be very much appreciated!

Since you are setting up for the first time, it's probably quickest to reinstall suse. Did you get any recovery media or instructions? (Most hp pc's come with a recovery partition and a means of revering the original install, so look at the hp docs or their website for manufacturer specific instructions.) These will be similar to their windows pcs and quite simple to do - the only thing is that you are installing linux. This time don't kill the power till after setup has finished!
