Thanks very much, Craig. Just to be sure that I am understanding you correctly, are you saying that while booted in to the mandriva partition, as root, at the command line, I just type this: mkinitrd initrd-win4lin-2.6.12-12mdk.img win4lin-2.6.12-12mdk ... and the system will (or should) reboot to the win4lin kernel? Then, I'm assuming that if this works, I'll need to build a new /boot/grub/menu.lst in the mandriva partition to replace the one currently being used in the mepis partition. Is that right? I know, one step at a time, but just trying to get this all in focus. ;)) Thanks again for your suggestions.
