When I took a look at menu.lst (which had been getting rather long, as every time i've installed a new kernel new entries get made, etc. I edited the file to take out a few of the redundant ones so that the list was shorter, and the install script worked.
Is the current version of grub allowing less entries? I did not install any new kernels when i updated grub last week, so the file should have been the same as it was when the last version of grub installed. V.
