Re: yet another grub 22 error thread
Pardon me if you already checked this, but I fixed a Grub error 22 by correcting my drive cabling. My Sata drive motherboard sockets were populated (clue was from from start up bios report):
Sata1: empty
Sata2: empty
Sata3: master 1
Sata4: master 2
Grub was happy after this:
Sata1: master 1
Sata2: master 2
Sata3: empty
Sata4: empty
When I first built the system I did not think it mattered to plug the cables in strict order (or my old eyes misread the small print). Apparently, the later versions of Ubuntu are picky at load about cabling. This can happen from plugging the IDE in reversed (drive header into motherboard socket) also. The install CDROM worked fine, as did XP, but not the Grub loader from the actual installation. Even with the first two Motherboard Sata sockets empty, the CDROM Kubuntu numbered them sda and sdb.
Hope this helps, cheers
