Hi,

Thanks for the continued support.
An explanation: it is difficult trying grub2 because I have changed
legacy grub to do things I needed:

I changed the commands to be able to do this:

title           2.6.24-ck1 on HDB3-NOAPIC CORRECTED network
find            /ST380011A.03
root            FILE=/ST380011A.03
kernel          /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-1-686 root=LABEL=ST380011A.03
noapic vga=791 apm=on ddcon=1 network quiet
initrd          /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-1-686
boot

That eliminates having to specify a hardcoded partition location and
enables me to use all labels so I can swap disk positions without
having to change any configuration parameters.

This certainly is [OT] to this bug but explains why I am sticking with
legacy grub for the moment.
