Try info grub (or you might find pinfo grub easier. Or try one of the
graphical interfaces) and follow Troubleshooting.
# 15 : File not found
# This error is returned if the specified file name cannot be found,
# but everything else (like the disk/partition info) is OK.
(OK: it could say *which* file wasn't found...)
# 22 : No such partition

Hope this helps,
James.
Thank you, but I already got that information from the HTML manual.
Since it doesn't say what file or partition can't be found, there is
no way of fixing the problem.
I started with the rescue CD and entered the grub console, then
proceeded to check the devices and partitions. After I was verifying
that I had setup the correct devices, I entered the "root" command
and used the "find" command to verify that I could find "stage1"
"menu.lst" and a kernel. I did not get any errors.
After about 16 hours of researching all the related issues and
trying every solution I could find, I gave up.
