I tried copying the 8.10 lines from sdb0 grub menu.lst to the 7.10 menu.lst and adding root (hd0,0) to that menu but all I got was an error.
title Ubuntu 8.10, kernel 2.6.27-7-generic root (hd0,0) <----- I added this line to conform to 7.10 uuid 773dfc5d-50e2-41ff-856e-6792808e3d19 kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27-7-generic root=UUID=773dfc5d-50e2-41ff-856e-6792808e3d19 ro quiet splash initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.27-7-generic quiet I don't know why there is an uuid line at all. It doesn't exist in 7.10 but I left it there. title Ubuntu 7.10, kernel 2.6.22-14-generic root (hd0,2) kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22-14-generic root=UUID=d6d52470-6775-41b9-814a-778b47ed37ba ro quiet splash initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.22-14-generic quiet In the meantime I'm reading the entire grub manual I snagged from the grub site and plan on getting to know it quite well. By the next meeting I should be an expert on grub.
