Intel DDR2 Jarrell SATA system fails in grub-loader with 
Error 15

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
grub-0.95.3

How reproducible:

Actual Results:  Error 15

The Intel Jarrell System has a  motherboard  with 7520 chipset and

There is no problem when using SCSI discs but with the SATA

and writing a new MBR.

And does it work with the grub packages in rawhide?

Comment 2 Winfrid Tschiedel 2005-01-24 11:59:17 UTC
I never tried a grub package from rawhide;
original I booted the system from a SuSE grub,
at that time the same error was in rhel-4.0-beta 
( issue 141950 ). After installing rhel-4.0-rc the
problem was fixed, so I just compared the grub version
and tried the grub package from rhel-4.0

Does this help you ?

Comment 3 Matthew Miller 2006-07-10 20:09:12 UTC
Fedora Core 3 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security
updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and
reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and
hasn't been resolved in the current FC5 updates or in the FC6 test
release, reopen and change the version to match.

Thank you!

The information we've requested above is required in order
to review this problem report further and diagnose/fix the
issue if it is still present.  Since there haven't been any
updates to the report in quite a long time now after we've
requested additional information, we're assuming the problem
is either no longer present in our current OS release, or
that there is no longer any interest in tracking the problem.

Setting status to "INSUFFICIENT_DATA", however if you still
experience this problem after updating to our latest Fedora 8
release and are still interested in Red Hat tracking
the issue, and assisting in troubleshooting the problem,
please feel free to provide the information requested above,
and reopen the report.

Thank you in advance.
