Finally success in getting my DSL working again! I originally had DSL working great in it's own pc but decided to use it for something else. I then put DSL on a second hard drive with windows on the other. That's where my problems started. I couldn't get the DSL lilo or grub to work on the mbr of the windows drive. I installed over and over and it was just ignored. I finally split the DSL drive in two halves and installed DSL first then Kubuntu (which I like quite a bit). I still had to edit the grubmenu.lst file to try and include DSL. The first time I tried it didn't work so I made another change and tried again......
SUCCESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!
I'm back using my DSL!!!!
Here's the jist of my grub file:
