I have created a NTFS Partition(/dev/sda3) and copy the grub files in it in the following path: /dev/sda3/boot/grub/

then tried to install the grub by using following commands:

grub> root (hd0,2)

 Filesystem unknown, partition type 0x7

grub> setup (hd0)

 Error : cannot mount selected partition

The partition is present and i created it with gparted.

i also tried the following command:

find (hd0,2)/boot/grub/stage1

Error 15: File not found

All the files were there as copied them. So, where is the problem and what i am doing wrong?
