Fedora4 Install and Raid control with grub failing to boot


Hi there.

I have a small problem with Fedora Core 4 as it seems the install went fine it cant seem to boot up as nice as it would.

After rebooting, the only thing you can see on the screen is the word "GRUB" and a blinking pointer and nothing more, therefore resulting problem with error helping.

I have 2x 160x SATA2 hdd (Samsung) on Raid 0 (using ULI 1573)

Upon completition of Install Fedora, the following sceme appears:

"Grub _" <- blinking pointer, cant you tell?


Any help would be greatly appreciated


Sincerely:
Jonatan



P.S.
some detail:
ASRock 775Twins-HDTV
ATI Radeon Xpress 200
Pentium D 805 processor
2x 512 DDR400 GSKill ram
and ofcourse: 2 Samsung Spinpoint hdd (see above)

The orginal FC4 installation media may not be able to work with your SATA interface, try these instead; http://fedora.isphuset.no/
