I am trying to set up grub, 2 of the entries in /boot/grub/menu.1st being...

title linux-2008
kernel (hd0,5)/boot/vmlinuz BOOT_IMAGE=linux-2008
root=UUID=21f45c8c-0029-4450-bc80-9c8de0584966
append="resume=/dev/hda11" vga=788
initrd (hd0,5)/boot/initrd.img


title linux-2007
kernel (hd1,6)/boot/vmlinuz BOOT_IMAGE=linux-2007
root=UUID=6f1868a0-99b7-11db-96d0-cd1076410762  vga=788
initrd (hd1,6)/boot/initrd.img

The 1st entry boots no problems, the 2nd crashes with msgs
        mount error 6 mounting ext3 flags default
        pivotroot .... failed 2
        kernel panic not syncing no init found
Both ptns are ext3. All appropriate files appear to be present

The 2nd will boot using a system rescue dvd but of course this has its
own kernel

Any ideas why the 2nd fails will be welcome

TIA

Barry
