The lines: --- title Other operating systems: root --- worry me because they are not valid. I've seen grub perform strangely when given an invalid menu.lst. (In fact, our new trouble shooting class includes a rather evil scenario based on that.) Other wise, I see not mention of Vmlinuz-custom2.6.8 in the menu.lst. I do see your Homebuilt entry. Could be that you just have the kernel name wrong. Alternatively, could be that you need an initrd and haven't specified one. -- Stuart Jansen e-mail/jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] "XML is like violence: if it doesn't solve your problem, you aren't using enough of it." - Chris Maden
