We need to understand how your system is partitioned and booted.
Give us output (unedited):
# fdisk -l
# uname -r
# cat /etc/grub.conf
# cat /proc/mounts
Now, to save some time, what is your understanding of:
- your primary boot loader (MBR) boots what (refer to distro/OS name and
partition as in 'fdisk -l' output (/dev/sda?) ?
- the boot loader for your distro in question (/dev/sda5) - are you the primary
(MBR) boot loader destination as above or are you a subordinate boot loader
destination (that is, your boot loader was placed on your root partition) ?
