do you remember the strange line in grub.conf from Saturday? In the kernel line one specifes the location of the kernel image like (boot partition)/boot/bzImage, where the boot partition itself is normally mounted at /boot in the root tree. Therefore there shouldn't be a directory by the name /boot in the boot partition. I've found that the boot partition has a symbolic link with the name boot to itself. Hence you could also write (boot partition)/bzImage or even (boot partition)/boot/boot/boot/boot/bzImage with exactly the same result.
