HELP: bootloader problems....



Hello!

me again....
now after several successful reboots with grub, and having changed
nothing at the booloader, now the thing stops at stage 2 with a error no
21....  BTW i switched to grub, because there was no way to get lilo to
work....

this is reported as 
21 : Selected disk does not exist

now when i look at the devices:
cat /boot/grub/device.map
(fd0)   /dev/fd0
(hd0)   /dev/hda
(hd1)   /dev/sda

this looks fine: the IDE disk for the short term non important data and
the SCSI disk for the system and userdata....

i made the grub-install onto /dev/hda....
system is a AMD Athlon1.3GHz ....
Adaptec controller, Epox motherboard

i am unable even following the docu to produce a working grub boot
floppy....

and i am stuck with a prehistoric kernel, since makeboot seems not to be
able to cope with initrd....

any ideas?
