[clue-tech] Compaq Armada 3500 woes

[Bill Smith]

Hi all, I dug around and found a grub install procedure for Knoppix. Here's what happened. First I did "fdisk -1" and I got 3 partitions as I had installed. The boot was /dev/sda1 and it was listed as ID: 83 ,system: linux, this should be ext3, the start was 1 end was 2374, 19+ Gig. The commands I used as root are as follows:
mount -t ext3 -o rw /dev/sda1 /mnt
chroot /mnt
grub-install /dev/sda     
 The feedback from this was
/dev/sda: Not found or not a block device
 
 
Thanks in advance. Bill
