I don't know how to fix your problem, but I do know that it ISN'T the
bootable flag. My bootable partition is hda3, which is Win98 (was, actually -
Win98 corrupted itself and I haven't bothered to fix it). My /boot is hda5,
which is NOT flagged bootable.
The one time I had your problem, I just booted from a floppy and ran lilo.
That fixed it. YMMV.
