Thanks! I've applied that updated patch, and GRUB seems to install
okay, but when I boot I don't get the standard GRUB menu, I just get
dropped into the GRUB console...my menu.lst looks like this:

# (0) Arch Linux
title  Arch Linux
root   (hd0,0)
kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/mapper/system_vg-root_lv ro
initrd /kernel26.img

I'm a little confused on the root declarations...I'm assuming the root
(hd0,0) should be pointing to the actual /boot partition, and then the
root kernel parameter points to the actual / partition (in this case
an LVM partition), correct?

Seems correct, but you explain it a little confusing.
I hope the example clears some things

my grub:
# (0) Arch Linux
title  Arch Linux
root   (hd0,0)
#kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sda3 init=/sbin/bootchartd ro vga=865
kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sda3 ro vga=865
initrd /kernel26.img


my 'df -h':
Filesystem            Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3              15G  8.7G  5.4G  62% /
none                 1001M  208K 1001M   1% /dev
none                 1001M   12K 1001M   1% /dev/shm
/dev/sda1              38M  5.9M   31M  17% /boot
/dev/sda4              94G   73G   16G  83% /home


(ps: Hi everybody, I'm new on the list, this is my first post)
