|     I have a CD-Rom I made with the downloaded Hardy Beta. I loaded it
| and it worked fine. Today I tried to load it to /dev/sda6 and I got it
| to start loading. It proceeded as if it was happy but instead of asking
| about grub setup it went back to the CD. I can mount /dev/sda6 to my
| working 7.10 and it is a almost a complete load but when I looked at
| boot there was no grub directory. This happened 3 times.
