I either have a completely unbootable config (even will not boot from DVD) and I have to run the recovery process, or I have the same situation... BIOS cannot find things and I can only boot from the DVD.
Have you tried marking the partition to boot as active?
Not as a specific step. This was a fully functioning hardware config running 11.0. All I did to go to 11.1 was pop in the DVD, format the root partition and install. No other changes were made....
I can (and will) go try making the boot partition active, but.. why would I need to do this now when it's been fine for several previous upgrades/installs?
Strange. I used the same DVD/hardware config and just reinstalled 11.1 from scratch.... this time it worked fine. It survives the reboot without any errors. Makes me wonder about the hardware... maybe it's telling me it's time to upgrade :-) Anyway, it's booting properly now... ither issues have popped up, but thatis another email.
