Your problem is that you partition of the the first harddisk is not set to bootable (the boot flag) start the liveCD and start the command line and do the following command:<BR>
$ sudo cfdisk (then choose to set to boot or bootable the partition where you had installed the Grub boot-manager and this should work).<BR>
