Arch Linux Booting Error [SOLVED]

I have installed Arch Linux system on my hd but it is having some problems. When I start the system on the grub It shows the following message.

----------------------------
Booting Arch Linux
Filesystem type unknown, partition type 0x7
Kernel /vmlinux26 root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/.....
Error 17: Cannot mount selected partition

Press any key to continue (return to grub).

---------------------------

I have installed the system 5 times or more.

Could it be you've got more than one OS installed?

I have two HDs. I have installed Arch Linux in a HD with 120GB and I have set on the boot to start this HD. When I want start the other HD I set in the BIOS again.
