Then check /boot/grub/menu.lst and edit to your requirement.

But for your system, that procedure, I don't think will work since you are using poorman hdd install. Apt-get will not work so do with installation of other application from source code. Unless you use klik and point.

Your option is to use Grub for Dos.

Don't ask me how because I never use it.
Check on post title ISO boot from NTFS (GRUB.exe, grldr from boot.ini)

They been actively discussing about it
Good luck

Can you install grub to a partition in that manner? I installed Knoppix 5.3.1 to sda7 but the installer didn't install all the grub files and left a blank menu.lst. I have not got it to boot yet. It almost booted from my Ubuntu menu.lst with an old puppy entry but froze. Do you need to run a live cd to install grub or can you do it straight from Ubuntu?
