thats the problem. /boot partitions suck for this reason. > /dev/hda7 54410 11482 40119 22% /var > /dev/hda8 38855 16 36833 0% /tmp > /dev/hda9 19021175 333698 17695867 2% /usr > > The only message I get is file not found.

Any ideas? try this: root (hd0,4) setup --prefix=/grub (hd0) grub doesn't know about mountpoints, so since grub lives in /boot/grub and /boot is its own partition that becomes /grub its easier to just make your / partition small and do away with the /boot partition entirely. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
