Make SURE the file "linuxboot.cfg" (or something like that, but it is "linuxboot" and it is lowercase) is in your root. I (once) had that problem while updating kernels.

Any luck :?:

PS: I meant the root of E:, not the root of your linux fs.

EDIT: Make sure that /all/ necessary files are there. Sometimes, they just get baleeted.
