Adding Option to Grub Menu

[andrewfblack]

ok I didn't install grub since I already had several items install. I
tried to edit my grub menu but I'm getting files not found when I try
to boot here is what I added for the android line.

title Android
kernel /android-2009-09-16/kernel root=/dev/sda5
androidboot.hardware=eeepc acpi_sleep=s3_bios,s3_mode SRC=/
android-2009-09-16
initrd /android-2009-09-16/initrd.img

android is installed on the the partion sda5 which is a logical
partition in. a extended partiion which is number sda3. Anyone know
whats wrong with my android menu entry.

Do you set root option?

If you put kernel, initrd.img in /dev/sda5,
you should add root (hd0,4) to the Android section.

Set root=/dev/sda5 to kernel option is completely wrong.
The root filesystem is ramdisk, not /dev/sda5.

I figured out the root (hd0,4) not to long before you posted this.
Thanks
