If you're editing menu.lst, I don't think you need the "boot" line at  
the bottom.

Is your machine dual-boot?  The arguments in the "root" line needs to  
point to the Linux partition that contains your image.elf.  Compare  
with other "root" lines in menu.lst.

Also, try going into the grub shell and type "find /boot/grub/ 
stage1".  This command tells you exactly what argument to give to  
"root".
