This is pretty much equivalent (except for mistakes you appear to have
made for not being sufficiently familiar with grub) to:

ah then the lack of documentation seems to be a valid point, then again if its the same as why when hte 3 times I know its been tried it failed?
putting lilo on it and running lilo and it booted right away.



grub
root (hd0,0)
setup

I.e., grub-install is equivalent to lilo, making them both just as
`difficult' to use, with the difference that you don't have to re-run
grub-install every time you change your boot loader configuration.
