if i remember correctly.. his / is on /dev/hda6 ... which could
be over the 1024 boundry... we donno what hw (mb/bios) he has ...
and its not booting ... so just guessing

and yes ... 1024 doesn't mean anything anymore ...but people still create
a partition for /boot...  whats the point ??
        /boot partition was to make sure the kernel resided below 
        the silly 1024 cylinders
