Details

-Single primary IDE drive
-Partition setup used in conjunction with the automagic utility in the installer, meaning default partitions created by arch (mounted as /boot instead of /home, of course)
-grub default configuration -is- being used, as the settings are correct by their default nature with the default partition settings
-grub installed to MBR
-on reboot screen is filled with GRUB GRUB GRUB

Grub script fails on terminal 5 to find stage1 and stage2, even though if manually navigated to boot/grub/ they can both be seen. Possibly the script?

I cannot reproduce this. The 0.6 install CD works fine for me.

Can anyone else?

I recently set up a very similar system to what Michael describes, no problem with grub either. Perhaps a bit of corruption, Michael?
