[GRASS-user] Projection of dataset does not appear to match the current location!!!

[Kunal Malik]

HI !!
If i don't know the Projection Information of the File to be Imported,could
i import the raster/vector file available..

 i am Trying to display  one raster image  kept on my harddisk. I have kept
spearfish60 on /usr/local/grassdata
so I set Location . spearfish60
 I have made one user user1 then i set Mapset: user1..
 then i start grass ,,
 the n throu command
 r.in.gdal -e in=nf42.tif out=tm
 then i am getting the error,.,,

 Projection of dataset does not  appear to match the current location!!!
 I have tried the same thru GIS manager,,,
 file->import->Raster->multiple formats using gdal..
