Update:
I did not take the Debian suggestion, since I am not familiar with Debian and I did not understand what you meant. Thank you for the suggestion.
Also, I did not “swap” the partitions, since the instructions told me to set them up this way.
So what did I do?
I copied the file minirt24.gz from a mirror site: http://feather.gus.to/mirror/ What this file does I do not know. I put it in, but I can run DSL without it as well.
Instead of executing all of the GRUB commands listed in my earlier message, I put them in the menu.lst file and copied it to the /boot directory. Then at the GRUB prompt I execute:
GRUB> bootloader /boot/menu.lst
Now the menu comes up, and I just select the default entry, where all the commands are kept. It then boots just fine.
I am sure you have a more elegant solution, but this works for me so far. I can remember the simple one liner. I haven’t figured out how to get the menu.lst to display automatically. If you know how to do this, then you can let me know.
