Hi,
cat /mnt/hda2/boot/grub/menu.lst
- i/o error
That is really bad.
Can you see any other files in grub folder by using ls -l?

Can you rename or remove that file?
yeah. I am pretty sure i can do that.

directory /mnt/sda2/boot/grub: No such file or directory

Hi,
here's what i did:
sudo mount -rw /mnt/hda2
sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/hda2 /dev/hda
knoppix says:
- mkdir: cannot create directory /mnt/hda2/boot/grub: already existing

Hi,
Just for the record (I don't know if your problem got resolved meanwhile).
That is a simple problem I myself ran into several times.
Grub tries to setup a new grub installation. If you want to use the
