Hello! I´ve installed damn small linux N 0.1 rc4 from a free CD. After reading lots of tips in ´some forums I got it on HD. After starting from HD Grub comes up and after  choosing DSL to start it comes the Error 15: File not found. In the startline I can read "kernel /boot/linux root=/dev/hda2 ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init quiet vga=normal nomce apm=power-off noprompt noeject frugal"
HDA2 ist the Linux-partition.
I´m a absolut linux beginner, and I´ve no idea what to do to get start the damn from hd.
Sorry about my bad english, but hope You can understand !?
Regards and Thanks for help!

Hello again!
After surching for the problem I found out that there is a path named "/boot" on hda2 but under this there is no other path named "linux". There is only path "/boot/grub". (changing grub start line to this path I got the same error. In the path /boot there are 2 files. (system.map and system.map-2.6.11)
Has someone any solution what to do??
Thanks

wow. There's no kernel. Your install didn't work, try copying "linux" from the cd's boot dir...

Hello!
Thanks for Your answer. How can it be?- I´ve installed from a live-CD.- After booting DAMN from CD there is a routine on workplace to install on Harddisc. I used this one to install.
Can You explain a little bit detailed what to do now?- I´ve no linux skill.
The situation is in the moment:
I can start DAMN from Live-CD. I can mount HDA2. On HDA2 I can see that the instal-routine has installed lot of paths and files.
If I boot without CD than GRUB starts. When I tried to start the DSL-Option I got the message "Error 15: File no found.
(The Start-Line is like told before)
Sorry about my english, hope You can understand me!?
Thanks!!!!

I get you Very Well. Here's more detail:

Boot Livecd, mount hda2.
Start Aterm, type
Quote
sudo su
cd /cdrom
ls

you should see something like "boot KNOPPIX index.html"
Quote
cd boot
ls
See? There are the boot files, including the kernel. Just copy it to /mnt/hda2/boot with
Quote
cp linux /mnt/hda2/boot
