It's for where the kernel vmlinux and initrd files are located. Do you have a boot partition? If you don't (e.g. /boot/ is just a directory in the tree), then you may have to specify the path (as you've done, with /boot/ in front of the vmlinuz filename). But, you *may* find a system is unbootable without a boot partition. That depends on your BIOS & GRUB. They have to be able to find the boot files. > initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.21-1.3194.fc7.img > > -> /boot/grub/device.map > (fd0) /dev/fd0 > (hd0) /dev/sda -- (This box runs FC5, my others run FC4 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
