You’ve to reset with grub the MBR
Solution:
boot from live cd/usb

in terminal:
sudo grub
and you pass in the grub mini bash
grub>

than
grub>find /boot/grub/stage1

and you’ll get something like
(hd0,1)

it probably give different result for you

than
grub>root (hd0,1)
grub>setup (hd0)
quit

and reboot

I d/l the CrunchEee ASUS Eee PC Edition (standard) and installed it to a USB drive last night. (Just so there is no misunderstanding, I first created a start-up "live" USB and from there installed it to another USB) The reason I installed it to a USB is for trial purposes and I dont want to mess up my functioning system on my HD (the pre-installed Win XP). After the installation, I get GRUB loading error #21 and I cant boot from my HD! What's more is that I can't boot from the Cruch-USB installation (!) (displaying only blinking underscore) But I CAN boot from a Flash (4GB SDHC) on which I have EEEbuntu 3.0 or Puppy (from a 2GB SD Flash)... I have previously done other such trial installations on USB or SD/SDHD with no problems and never had any problem booting from the HD with Win XP (which I do after each installation, just to check, before I boot again from the newly installed linux on USB or SD/HC (Puppy, Easypeasy, Ubuntu NBR, Mint, etc). It was now after installing Crunch that I no longer can boot from the HD and get the GRUB error #21. The internal HD is still reachable (thank God) once I boot from e.g. Eeebuntu, so I could back up some files from it, and it is also visible in the Set-up, and can be chosen as boot drive, but from there on all I get when trying to boot from it is GRUB error #21. From what I have gathered from looking in forums, this means that Crunch has for some solitarily inexplicable reason chosen to rewrite the MBR on my internal HD while installing to the USB. Or?
