Try changing title Zenwalk root (hd1,1) kernel /boot/sdb1/vmlinuz initrd /boot/sdb1/initrd.splash savedefault to title Zenwalk kernel (hd1,1)/boot/vmlinuz initrd (hd1,1)/boot/initrd.splash savedefault I don't think there is a folder /sdb1 inside the folder /boot. _______________________________________________ 64studio-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.64studio.com/mailman/listinfo/64studio-users
