Press ENTER to continue. I pressed enter and it booted up just fine. Is this the beginnings of a failing HDD? The drive is only 6 months old. I didn't change any settings in GRUB, nor have I made any system changes. Thanks for any help in advance!

I'm trying to do a dual boot system with windows 7 x64. The machine's mbr was completely destroyed. Now I'm restoring it with win7dvd. My machine is : asus motherboard intel i5 750 4gb ram radeon hd 5830 2x1TB HDD connected in RAID0 My RAID partitions were previously configured by win7. error 18 selected I had 1. 200GB for windows 2. 500 NTFS 3. 1TB NTFS 4. The rest (130GB) at the end of the volume were unpartitioned. I've let suse setup to decide by its own how to create partitions and the result was: 1. 102 MB /boot 2. 2GB /swap 3. 20GB /root 4. 116 GB /home 5. some mbs unpart.

I once installed on a system where the BIOS was not able to boot from a partition that started after a certain disk address. Because GRUB was installed after existing partitions it was impossible to boot from there. I had to use a partition "somewhere at the beginning of the disk" as boot partition. This was of course a bit of an aged BIOS.
