Ok, I made it work by changing the line : initrdname=$(echo "$kernfile" | sed "s/vmlinu[zx]/initrd\*/") to initrdname="$(echo "$kernfile" | sed "s/vmlinu[zx]/init\*/").img" With this change, the script is now looking for the file name init*[kernel version].img, instead of initrd[kernel ve

I'm not sure if there's much we can do about the hda6 vs. sda6 thing - this is entirely dependent on the exact configuration of kernel being booted and it's entirely possible for it to switch back and forth even within a single release of a single distribution at times. :-( I'd like to fix the ini

The same issue happens to me with the detection of CentOS. The grub.cfg reads: menuentry "CentOS release 5.3 (Final) (on /dev/sda6)" { insmod ext2 set root=(hd0,6) search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set 4870fcd7-5b5b-4276-97ee-a8134dd68e2a linux /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.18-128
