(^_^)I'm no "guru" but this is a known problem, particularly in cases where you're
(^_^)using YaST to install/configure grub on a system with many partitions and
(^_^)multiple operating systems. The bottom line is you have to double check the
(^_^)configuration it writes before accepting and allowing it to be installed.
(^_^)
(^_^)**Watch out for simple partition mapping errors** like
(^_^)calling /dev/hdb7 'hd1,7' in "grub speak" (should be 'hd1,6').
(^_^)
(^_^)Really... it's as simple as that. You let it calculate/suggest the
(^_^)configuration and, before committing it to disk, find and fix these little
(^_^)problems.
(^_^)
(^_^)hth & regards,
(^_^)

Hmm? So I should manually change these settings? I was almost confident
about the partitions because sda7 (swap), sda8 (root), and sda9 (home)
was correct as far as where they were on the drive itself.
Too many people spend money they haven't earned to buy things they don't want, to impress people they don't like.
