Cant boot in my new install

Hi,

well with Cannonical going boncos i decided to install Arch because i LOVE gnome 3 (no need for a mouse no more!!) and am tired of releases.

so i installed from the 2010.05 iso x64

followed all the isntruction in https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Of … tall_Guide TWICE (same result both times)

and end up with grub working but cant boot in either arch or fallback with an error 15

thanks for the help

Re: Cant boot in my new install

Boot into a live cd, mount your boot partition and ls the files in there. It could be that your grub is pointing to the wrong partition.

Lenovo Y450 + Arch x86_64 dual boot with Windows 7 + Openbox standalone + Arch default kernel + Nouveau + yours truly = A lot of *****in' in the Arch Forums.

Re: Cant boot in my new install

i needed my samba share off the machine so i reinstalled a ubuntu minimal with  webmin, ill get arch working in virtualbox and then try to install it in my machine, its weird i never had problems like this installing a distro.

what kinda live cd did you want me to use ubuntu changes the permissions on mount while on live, does arch have a live ?

thanks
