I'm wondering if you might have to do some drive mapping. My windows install
is on hdb, so to get it to boot, I do:
other=/dev/hdb1
label=windows
table=/dev/hdb
map-drive=0x80
to=0x81
map-drive=0x81
to=0x80
This is just a guess, but maybe you can do:
image=/boot/vmlinuz
label=ic-linux
map-drive=0x84
to=0x80
root=/dev/hde6
initrd=/boot/initrd.img
append="hdc=ide-scsi ide0=noautotune ide1=noautotune ide2=noautotune
It might have to do with restrictions on booting from hde, but I could very
well be wrong. :(
