Dear Colleages,
I am using Fedora Core 2 with GRUB Loader and I am
facing a problem with it. Every now and then when I
turn on my machine, expecting to see GRUB menu, I get
endless printing of "GRUB" on the screem like this
GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB
GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB GRUB .....
The problem does not appears always, there are times
when I use it normally.
Up to now I fix this using a Linux rescue disk so that
I can boot somehow and then I reinstall grub with the
command:
grub-install /dev/hda
My machine has Fedora Core 2 and Windows 2000 on it
(which I haven't used for sevral months). The contents
of /boot/grub/grub.conf is
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making
changes to this file
# NOTICE: You do not have a /boot partition. This
means that
# all kernel and initrd paths are relative to
/, eg.
# root (hd0,0)
# kernel /boot/vmlinuz-version ro
root=/dev/hda1
# initrd /boot/initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hda
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,0)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Fedora Core (2.6.5-1.358)
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.5-1.358 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb
quiet
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.5-1.358.img
title Windows2000
root (hd0,1)

and just for information my partitions as shown by
fdisk are:
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id

/dev/hda1 1 1275 10241406 83
Linux
/dev/hda2 * 1407 3319 15366172+ 7

/dev/hda3 1276 1406 1052257+ 82

Thank you very much in advance
