After copying LFS from /dev/hda4 to /dev/sda1 I realized I need to compile SCSI support into the kernel. After successfully (no errors) doing that, I wanted to set up grub to allow me to boot from /dev/hda1 (Mepis), /dev/hda4 (first LFS build) or /dev/sda1 (copy of 1st LFS build).
I chrooted into the environment before compiling the kernel compiled the new kernel on /dev/sda1 followed all the steps in LFS 6.0 (make menuconfig, make, make modules_install) then moved on to the grub setup. After typing grub I did the following at the grub> prompt: root (sda0,0) and the system returned: Error 23: Error while parsing number. My questions are: 1) Is there a place that I can find out what this error code (and others) mean so I can try to figure things out before asking everyone? 2) Is there something special about SCSI hard drives I should know in order to boot from them? (I did compile everything into the kernel that mentioned SCSI) 3) How do I fix this?
