Comment 5 for bug 466775

OK, this didn't work. here is the error I get:

Begin: Waiting for root file system...
Done
Gave up waiting for device. Common problems

-Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
  -check root delay (did the system wait long enough?)
  -check root (did the system wait for the right device?)
-Missing modules (cat /proc modules; ls/desc

Alert does not exist dropping to shell.

When I installed 9.10 I chose the option to keep the existing menu.lst.
Apparently that was a mistake. It would seem to me that the menu.lst should
be updated without losing entries for other OS's.

I'm afraid I will have to either downgrade or re-install? The new kernel
does not seem to recognize the file system....
