We've moved to GRUB 2 as a development platform. Please can you check if this bug still applies there, and if it does, reopen it?

Thanks

I have 3 hard drives set up this way:

  1. is Win2k

1 is Mandrake
2 is Redhat

Grub is configured and I can boot to Win2K and Redhat.
However, I can not Boot to Mandrake. I set the root to (hd1,0) and it see the partition correctly. When I set the kernel to /vmlinuz it says it can not find it.

I can mount the Mandrake partition under Redhat and I can see the vmlinuz file in the /boot directory. I just can not boot it?

Mandrakes device file starts at /dev/hdi = 0, /dev/hdj =1, /dev/hdl=2. While the redhat map is /dev/hda=0, /devhdb=1, /dev/hdd=2.

When I run find /vmlinuz it only sees the file on (hd2,0) even though I set the root to (hd1,0) and the file exists.
