chainloader +1, again

[Gene Heskett]

Greetings all;

I started an install of f12 on what is  /dev/sdb here, after using gparted 
to set it up, and figured out a way to get around the disk config in anaconda.

I answered a few questions, and it looked as if it was headed off to do it 
all by itself, so I toddled off to do a bit of walnut machining for several 
hours.

On return, I had a hell of a time getting my monitor to unblank, so I guess 
this BS with the ATI driver, radeon, has finally gotten to the ccfl lamp in 
my monitor, and its just about 18 months old.

However, when I tried to use the exit button in that cd's simple gui, there 
was no response until I right clicked on the screen, but since it was running 
from the cd, it would not eject at any point during the reboot, and I finally 
killed the power for the 2nd time and managed to grab it in the 2 seconds 
between getting it to eject, and the bios sucking it back in. I expected it 
to boot F12, but there was no sign of F12 in the grub menu.  Just my
regular menu.

So I booted normally to F10 & kernel 2.6.34-rc2, and I have now tried to add 
a chainloader stanza to my grub.conf here on /dev/sda1 that will cause it to 
reload grub from /dev/sdb1.

However, all I can get are 'file not found' errors.  Looking at /dev/sdb1 
after mounting it shows:

Is anything missing?

Thanks.
