Continuation of our discussion in the Lucid thread.
Perfectly working box with 3 full installs..... Vector 6 (sda1),Puppy 4.20 (sda6) and Puppy 4.31 (sda7).Legacy Grub in the mbr.
Did a frugal install of Lupu-515 and installed Grub4dos in the mbr as bootloader.The only 2 installs that would boot were the 2 full Puppy installs....no go on Vector and the Lupu frugal.Both had a kernel panic.I've since edited the menu.lst and have Vector booting.

I had to change the kernel line for the Vector install from "root=/dev/sda1" to "root=0301" boots fine again now.
Now to get the Lupu frugal booting.
