My buddy Alex helped me fix this. I had to use Grub to write the new
/boot/grub/menu.lst to the MBR.
So:
First, get into grub
ja...@jakes-desktop:~$ grub
Probing devices to guess BIOS drives. This may take a long time.
[ Minimal BASH-like line editing is supported. For
the first word, TAB lists possible command
completions. Anywhere else TAB lists the possible
completions of a device/filename. ]
Now look for menu.lst
grub> find /boot/grub/menu.lst
find /boot/grub/menu.lst
(hd0,0)
(hd1,0)
(hd2,0)
Make sure the menu.lst is the one you want.
grub> cat (hd0,0)/boot/grub/menu.lst
cat (hd0,0)/boot/grub/menu.lst
# menu.lst - See: grub(8), info grub, update-grub(8)
# grub-install(8), grub-floppy(8),
# grub-md5-crypt, /usr/share/doc/grub
# and /usr/share/doc/grub-doc/.
...
Make sure stage1 is on the same partition you're going to use
### END DEBIAN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST
grub> find /boot/grub/stage1
find /boot/grub/stage1
(hd0,0)
(hd1,0)
(hd2,0)
grub> root (hd0,0)
grub> setup (hd0)
I rebooted and it works fine. Thanks!
