Well, there may be another problem here. If there was a kernel update on
the hda2 partition AFTER the hda2 partition was coipied to hda6, the
menu.lst will not work from hda6 because the new kernel is not on that
partition. Therefore, I think it would be wise to run an update from the
system on hda6 before the grub-install command. It isn't really easy to
think of everything that can go wrong.
