Thanks for helping...I really had missed out for the "root" where my system
is (hd0,2).

But now I got another problem..When I select to boot OKL4 with Grub. It
hangs with a numbers of address.

	Booting "OKL4 1.5.2"

Root (hd0,2)
	Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83
Kernel /boot/grub/image.elf
	Multiboot-elf, <0X100000:0xd88f:0x0>,<0x10f000:0x4a06:0x0>,
<0x114000:0xdc0c:0x203f4>,
<0x142000:0x23948:0x0>,<0x570000:0x118b3:0x0>,<0x583000:0x2044:0x12fbc>,....
.............
......................,shtab=0x12509b0, entry=0x165000]

Is there any more settings need to be done?
For your information I'm currently using dual XEON processor, IA32 system.
Will this affect this booting process also?

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".
