Help booting mandrake install with grub...

[rrfish72]

I need to get my mandrake 10 install to boot through grub. I installed kanotix and the grub installer did not recognize the mandrake install, which uses lilo, and now I cannot configure the menu.1st properly for it to boot. It is on hda1, windows on hda2, hda3 -swap, hda4 - kanotix. Here are the entries for the menu.1st:

title Kanotix
root (hd0,3)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8.1-kanotix-5 root=/dev/hda4 ro ramdisk_size=100000 lang=us apm=power-off hda=scsi hdb=scsi hdc=scsi hdd=scsi hde=scsi hdf=scsi hdg=scsi hdh=scsi nomce vga=791
savedefault
boot

title Mandrake
root (hd0,0)
kernel /mnt/hda1/boot/initrd.img root=/dev/hda1 devfs=mount acpi=ht splash=silent vga=788
boot

#title Mandrake
#root (hd0,0)
#kernel /mnt/hda1/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8.1-10mdk root=/dev/hda1 devfs=mount acpi=ht splash=silent vga=788
#boot

### END DEBIAN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST
#title Mandrake
#root (hd0,0)
#kernel /mnt/hda1/boot/initrd.img root=/dev/hda1 devfs=mount acpi=ht splash=silent vga=788
#boot

title WindowsXP
rootnoverify (hd0,1)
makeactive
chainloader +1
savedefault

I've tried all of what is commented out and I get the following error:

root (hd0,0)
Filesystem type is ext2fs partition type is 0x83
Kernel /mnt/hda1/boot/ initrd.img vga= 0 x317 root = /dev/hda1 devfs=mount
acpi=ht splash=silent vga=788
Error 15: File not found

Press any key to continue...

I don't know why the vga=0 x 317 is in there. I know it is there in the mandrake lilo.conf file but don't know how or why it appears in the grub menu.1st.

Any help would be appreciated.

I am more comfortable with lilo myself, but the following looks plausible:

title Mandrake
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.8.1-10mdk root=/dev/hda1 devfs=mount acpi=ht splash=silent vga=788
initrd /boot/initrd.img
boot
PS: grub's config file is called menu.lst, not menu.1st

I did the reverse and reinstalled kanotix then mandrake and used mandrakes lilo to boot and now it works. Thanks for the help.
