Subject: grub probs (fedora core3/slackware/xp)
Hi,

currently I have grub on my laptop. It manages to
handle xp and fedora core(fc3 installed grub..)but not
my slackware partition

hda1 windoze
hda2 slackware
hda3 Fedora Core 3

I believe i've set /etc/grub.conf file correctly...

default=0
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd0,2)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title Fedora Core (2.6.9-1.667)
root (hd0,2)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb
quiet
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.9-1.667.img
title slackware
root (hd0,1)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-ide-2.4.26

title Other
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
chainloader +1

=================

if i cd to /mnt/slackware/boot
i see:

[root@localhost boot]# ls
config-2.6.9-1.667  initrd-2.6.9-1.667.img 
vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667
grub                System.map-2.6.9-1.667
[root@localhost boot]#


if i cd to /mnt/slackware/initrd
i see:
nothing.

i mention the initrd because I've noticed initrd in
the fedora section.

it will boot up to a point and then kernel panic.

i've also tried

title slackware
root (hd0,1)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz

and no luck still get kernel panic.

My Question: Do I have the grub.conf file set
correctly according to the information i've supplied?
