grub error 15 install error

[Euroman28]

Hi I use Fedora Core 6 on my Laptop and then I do the Grub Harddrive installation I get the error then boot

grub: error 15 file not found.

I have copied plpbt.bin to /boot/ and added the command-line to menu.lst as seen below

What am I doing wrong? and how do I fix it?

Best Regards

hi,
i think fedora created a boot partition that will be mounted to /boot. in this case you have to use /plpbt.bin instead of /boot/plpbt.bin in your menu.lst. similar to vmlinuz and initrd

you can check if /boot is a partition when you run "mount" without parameter
