Press c to get the GRUB command line and then use find to identify your root partition - find /etc/fstab will work unless you have two root partitions. There's no need for suck-it-and-see editing of config files, you only have to change menu.lst after you have found and tested the correct boot options. -- Neil Bothwick Next time you wave at me, use more than one finger, please.
