I hate these init thingys and will admit I know little about the things. I had a thought tho, could it be that the file system needed to read the init thingy isn't included somehow or in the kernel maybe? If it is pointing to the right place, sounds like it is to me, then it has to be a read problem I'd think. I haven't ever had to use the edit menu on grub2 that I remember. It might be worth mentioning that it may have tab completion. That would certainly remove a typo if it can complete the kernel or init thingys file name on its own. Just a thought. Going back under my desk now. Dale :-) :-)
