Re: GRUB problem?

Hi,

Here's a weird one... I've noticed that as soon as the GRUB
boot-loader runs, I lose my DVD-RW drive. It functions normally if I
jump into the BIOS setup at boot time, then ceases to respond the
moment GRUB runs, so that even if I boot into WinXP, the drive does
not show up. Restoring the MBR makes the problem go away, so it is
definitely not a drive problem.

I can't see anything specifically about this at the GNU GRUB home
page. Anyone have any ideas, please?

Thx,
klw

I had a problem with GRUB last week, it seemed that 'timeout' didn't
work. I also noted that I had the same problem with LILO and even when
starting a live-cd.

When I unplugged the keyboard I had no problem! As you can imagine the
problem disappeared when I bought a new keyboard.

The strange fact was that the only way in which I found the problem was
when booting. After the boot process the keyboard worked fine.

Maybe your problem is somehow similar?
