    Grub Stalled

    I cloned my drive for an upgrade using an external USB and Acronis- which has always worked in the past. This drive is triple boot and set as master.
    Now however, with the new drive installed, it will not boot or run Grub,

    It just stalls during boot at GRUB..

    I can get to the grub menu using a super grub disk and boot okay, but Super Grub is unable to fix it.

    I can't see anything obvious with the menu.lst ( below) but since uuid came along, I am lost

      Got it solved by going to a console and setting up Grub again and pointing it to hd0,2

      Thanks
