I ended up adding

title BeOS
root (hda1,0)
makeactive
chainloader +1

to GRUB in vi and now it works like a charm :)))

thanks all for the help!  apparently with BeOS you have to use a 
chainloader, like Windows, and not boot from the kernel as with Linux 
or BSD.

anyway, I'm a happy camper now with 4 OSes that boot from GRUB!!
