[NTLUG:Discuss] 64 bit process Linux installation

[Dennis Rice]

Hopefully someone can provide some insight.

I have a 64 bit process that I am attempting to install Linux on.  The 
installation appeared to go well, but on reboot, it came up with a grub 
prompt.  I do have a lot of "extra" partitions - could that cause a problem?

Hardware is a Gigabyte MB, 1 GB RAM, Primary Master Drive is 250 GB, 
Primary Slave is 40 GB.  "/" and "/boot" reside on the primary master. 
"/home" and "/var" reside on the primary slave.  I have set up several 
extra partitions on the master for extra data and backup.

Appreciate any thoughts.
