    Default Computer does not boot from harddisk

    I recently set upped 9.10 Kubuntu over Linux Mint. The root / partition were formatted with ext3. After finishing the reboot halted in

    * BIOS *
    GRUB

    When booting from disc / select "Boot from Hard disk" it works very well (ok, I'll get a fantastic uptime :-)). I have no multiboot configuration. Do I contain to re-install grub2 at present? I saw in one more hint that there were a few changes in the boot configuration?

    How do you suggest "over"? Did you format the root partition as well as reinstall the fresh system, or else something else.

    No, just that. I shut down Linux Mint, booted from Install disc, formatted the root partition and after that installed Kubuntu. Only the home partition was not formatted.
