you did not tell the kernel it's root partition. The error would have been
kernel panic unable to mount root filesystem blah blah
The script posted was the last abandoned one. Different options were
tried out but no result. In order to be sure, I tried out the
root=/dev/hda11 entry again but it stops at kernel panic and gives the
same 'root=' related error. Do you have any old working scripts for
pointing grub to lilo?
Can I get into grub prompt in one booted distro and test the grub of
another distro? Will the testing kernel clash with the one already up in
the RAM?
Regards,
Rony.
