Rebooted several times during installation.
Grub boots up to 1.5 then stops at a grub prompt.
root (hd0,0) reports ext2 filesystem
kernel (hd0,0)/v {followed by tab key shows vmlinuz file, so
files are there}
kernel (hd0,0)/vmlinuz {fails with error 15 - file not
found}
Using TAB to complete the filename in "kernel ... /vm..." command fails
with same error.
Is it not finding the vmlinuz file or some other file?
fresh install which hasn't ever booted correctly after the install?
Booting from the CD during the install doesn't count. I'll assume you did
not change anything since the GNU/Linux install.
Did you setup a loader during the install? grub goes to the shell when
its configuration file is not found. Also, which distro and grub version
are you using?
It seems you are saying contradictory things: Are you saying the first
time you press tab it finds the file, and subsequently gives error 15?
Mayber try this:
grub> root (hd0,0)
grub> kernel /vmlinuz ro root=/dev/hda1
grub> boot
