Error 17 after install Hardy on gigabyte MA78GM
Install Ubuntu 8.04 on single Hard Drive SATA with WinXP already on. SATA setup as AHCI on bios. Tried with 2 hard drives first, taken additional one out (there was no RAID thou). Setting ubuntu up as only OS using full HD capacity (238 GB), installs ok. If I partition HD with 2 main partitions, with WinXP on first one-78.13 GB-, then install ubuntu using live CD, using manual partitioning asigning separate partitions on gparted for /home, / and swap, installation completes fine, restart and get grub error 17. Reinstalled ubuntu several times, changing the placement of grub on each different partition (/,home), still the same error 17. Used SuperGrubDisk but it has been unable to fix it.
