Is your system a SCSI only system?
Are you sure that /dev/sda1 really is (hd0,0) in GRUB-speak (you have tab-completion in the grub-shell so you can fiddle around in there to find out)?


kernel (hd0,0)/kernel-2.4.22-gentoo-r7 root=/dev/ram0 real_root=/dev/sda2



What is the root=/dev/ram0 parameter for? I've never seen it before... I tried finding real_root in the online manual for grub, but I can't, what is it supposed to do?
Have you tried just putting root=/dev/sda2 instead?


init=linuxrc vga=0x317 splash=verbose



I think you can remove this line too and just go with (I'd skip the splash part too):


kernel (hd0,0)/kernel-2.4.22-gentoo-r7 root=/dev/sda2 vga=0x317

initrd (hd0,0)/kernel-2.4.22-gentoo-r7



Don't you mean: initrd (hd0,0)/initrd-2.4.22-gentoo-r7?


My grub.conf would probably look something like this in your case:

#grub.conf for scsi-dude
default 0
timeout 10
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz

Title= Linux 2.4.22
root=(hd0,0)
kernel (hd0,0)/kernel-2.4.22-gentoo-r7 root=/dev/sda2 vga=792
initrd (hd0,0)/initrd-2.4.22-gentoo-r7
#end grub.conf
