"info grub" gives
15 : File not found
This error is returned if the specified file name cannot be found,
but everything else (like the disk/partition info) is OK.
Try pressing 'c' upon grub prompt to access grub command line. Then
you'd be able to play with <tab> key and see what partition/path you
should use.
Type "kernel (hd1," and press <tab> to see the full list of possible
partitions. Having chosen one you can still use <tab> for further
"moving" through directories.
For your case try to type "kernel (hd1,0)/" adn press <tab> one or more
times to see what directories exist on the partition. Especially make
sure /boot/lfskernel-2.6.11.12 does exist on the selected partition.
