We'd need a lot more specific information about exactly how your system is
configured to give you a step-by-step formula without the danger of
advising you incorrectly, thus causing you grief, and not many people want
to do that anyway. Lots, though, will be happy to answer your specific
questions after you have researched on your own.

The grub menu list /boot/grub/menu.lst is annotated.

Further information is available in the GNU GRUB manual, usually accessed
from a terminal with "info grub".
