Hi,
I installed Acronis Startup Recoverz Manager on my DSL 2.4 and now I get "unable to load operating system. press enter to reboot ..."
My setup:
Grub in MBR
boot in hda1
data in hda2
swap in hda0

Tried installing Acronis in hda1 and also hda2 (i.e. resizing either of the two), same error.

Has anyone had same experience and a solution?

Thanks
pio

OK, I booted into DSL and followed these instructions:
< Installing Grub natively >,
putting Grub into first sector on first partition on first hard disk, instead of Master Boot Record (MRB).
To do this, enter at the Grub-prompt:

Code Sample

grub> setup (hd0,0)

Then I installed Acronis Startup Recovery Manager normally.

Have fun.
