As far as I know, grub doesn't use the Linux /dev/ nodes to access disks. The syntax for both IDE and SATA drives should be the same for your menu.lst, so something along the lines of groot=(hd0,0). Since you are using the secondary drive (in Linux, /dev/sdb) I guess it would probably be groot=(hd1,0). You'd still want kopt=root=/dev/sdb1 as it is though, since that parameter is intended for the kernel and not the bootloader. -Elijah -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
