[NMLUG] grub help



I was trying to build a new 2.6 kernel and use grub.
(the installer had trouble with grub, I had to use LILO...
not I'm trying to get grub back by hand.)

anyway...  I'm now not booting.
I was thinking that I could command grub interractively I knew
what to do.

My nerves are getting thin...  so I'm asking for help.

I know that /boot is /dev/hda2
/ is /dev/hda3
Kernel is /boot/SMP2.4.8HM  (among other things)
map is /boot/System.map-SMP2.4.8HM (and some other
"automagic" stuff too)

I'd hope this is all I would need to boot.
/boot is ext2
/ is ext3

Is there a sequence of grub commands I can issue to
boot this kernel?

I could boot a previous kernel if it would help...
but I can't even get that far!
