I am newbie just try to install ubuntu 8.04 in my external hard drive.
I have a problem. When unplug external hard drive from usb
the error says as following:
Grub loading stage1.5
Grub loading, please wait...
Error 21
When I plug in the external hard disk again. It will run and having a selection as the following:
Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24-19-generic
Ubuntu 8.04.1, kernel 2.6.24-19-generic (recovery mode)
Ubuntu 8.04.1, memtest86 +
Other Operating systems:
Windows NT/2000/XP
Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
My boot sequence when I install the first priority boot is using cd-rom
but after that i change my sequence as the following:
Boot priority order:
1: IDE0: HTS541010G9SA00IDES
2: IDE2: PIONEER DVD-RW DVR-K06RS
3: IDE1:
4: Network Boot: MBA V8.2.6 Slot 0400
5: USB CD-ROM
6: USB HDD Generic HD8-SU2-IN-(USB2
I want it to be when i unplug usb it will go straight to windows
When I plug in usb I can boot into UBUNTU.
Below is the command I type in the terminal to get the hard disk information:
sudo fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 100.0 GB, 100030242816 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 12161 cylinders

And this is my menu.lst I dont know what is this but I just include this hope can give more details about my system. (I am not sure what to change to make sure my first boot is in my windows. When i plug in the external hard disk it will boot the UBUNTU operating system.)
