Bin doing recompiles far too long , no I did not copy the kernel over the old 
image.

# /boot/grub/menu.lst - generated by Lizard
#


# options

timeout = 5
# splashscreen = (hd0,8)/boot/message.col31

default = 1

title  = Linux
root   = (hd0,8)
kernel = /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.13-modular vga=normal root=/dev/hda15

title  = Linux-2.4.18
root   = (hd0,8)
kernel = /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18 vga=normal root=/dev/hda15

title = Windows
chainloader = (hd0,0)+1

This also is fine, so where next a reinstall of grub to the mbr ? might try 
that., just cannot see why its ignoring the 2.4.18 boot.
