grub.conf configuration

[Mike Reinehr]

I could be wrong, but I don't believe this will work.

First, I don't believe that boot=/dev/hda is a proper command. In the example 
I believe that the line "#boot=/dev/hda" merely was a comment to inform the 
reader that the system would be booting off of the first hard drive.

Next, the line "root (hd0,0)" indicates to grub that it will find the kernel & 
initrd images in the first partition (hda1). Are they, in fact, located 
there?

Third, in the "kernel" line, I don't believe that the qualifier "root=LABEL=/" 
is correct. It is my understanding that "root=" should be directing grub to 
the root partition, i.e., root=/dev/hda2, root=/dev/hda3, etc.

You can find the documentation on-line at:
