Careful mixing 's' and 'S'; this is a case-sensitive filesystem! I believe the filenames grub uses are all lowercase. I guess that error message above was something you wrote down and typed into the email, since it's difficult to copy and paste from your boot loader =). But make sure that grub indicates that it's looking for stage1 (lowercase) and that the file you have is also called stage1 (lowercase). good times, Vineet -- http://www.doorstop.net/ -- "Those who desire to give up freedom in order to gain security will not have, nor do they deserve, either one." --President Thomas Jefferson
