Haven't messed with grub in a long time, but the config files appear to be two versions? Like the install stopped before it was done? I looked through the logs but did not see anything obvious. Attached. grub.cfg is from the "good" install and grub.conf is from the "bad" install. That is the way they were named in the images. Additionally, here is a directory listing of boot/grub for both "Good" install -------------- grub.cfg grubenv i386-pc/ locale/ splash.png unifont.pf2 "Bad" install ------------- grub.conf menu.lst I tar/gzipped /boot (including the kernels and everything) and placed them at http://smartappliances.us/ipfire.85.87.tgz if you want them for anything. I'll remove them at the end of the week. If no one else has reported anything similar, I vote we call it "operator error" and move on.
