Thanks Nik.

I have looked at MENU.LST and it contains this line which I think you
are referring to:

kernel   /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-27-386 root=/dev/hdb5 ro quiet=vga=791

Does this need to be changed?

I think I can change the line if necessary. I am sure a need to be SU to
make any change. Is that correct?
