Hi Dave,
I don't understand your setup.How many disks do you have? (apparently one, is it correct?)How is the disk partitioned?Normally you have only one grub file with several "title blabla" stuff inside.In your "ubuntu intrepid partition" file I see no "root (hd0,0)" line.That might be the problem (but since I don't understand your setup,don't fight too much with that if adding the line doesn't changeanything).
Ok, normally, here is what you should do:only one /boot/grub/menu.lst filein this file, several entries.Just copy all the lines from the first entry, and change theline "root (hd0,0)" to point to the correct partition (maybe(hd0,1), you should check your partitions with fdisk to getthe number, or inside grub you can have a command line(don't remember how)and press: root (hd0,"TAB" it should output a list of availablepartitions (if I remember well, it's been a long since Iplayed with this grub).I don't know anything about these "uuid" stuff, heck did windowswin some kind of game in there? what is this crappy line?Anyway, pass /dev/sdaXX where XX is the partition wherethe intrepid partition resides in the "root" line and remove theuuid one (unless you are absolutely sure information in thereis correct). I don't think it's /dev/sda1 since sda1 is where your64 studio system is. Or do they share the partition and it'sjust the kernel that changes? In which case the "kernel"line should be adjusted.
Ah, and to see if your changes in the grub file are takeninto account (a doubt just popped up in my brain since youuse a initrd stuff) try to change the title and see if itis reflected in the grub's menu. Maybe you edit the wrongfile (but since stuff happens, you may well edit the correctone, I'm not that good with initrd stuff...)
Hope it helps.If not, try to contact me off-list, we're getting slightlyoff topic here.
Booting is not that hard guys. Writing cool audio softwareis much much harder. You have to deal with people, notstupid boring machines. :)
