First of all, Thanks Marcus, for your help so far...
This is what I get when I look at fstab and grub.conf and when I try
to do grub-install. Keep in ming that in knoppix I get the following:
hda1, hda2 and hda5...
root@ttyp0[/]# mount /dev/hda2 /mnt/root
root@ttyp0[/]# chroot /mnt/root
[root@Knoppix /]# mount /dev/hda1 /boot
[root@Knoppix /]# vi /etc/fstab
[root@Knoppix /]# vi /boot/grub/grub.conf
[root@Knoppix /]# grub-install /dev/hda
/dev/hdd1 does not have any corresponding BIOS drive.

when I run grub-install:
root@ttyp0[/]# mount /dev/hda2 /mnt/root
root@ttyp0[/]# chroot
chroot: too few arguments
Try `chroot --help' for more information.
root@ttyp0[/]# chroot /mnt/root
[root@Knoppix /]# mount /dev/hda1 /boot
[root@Knoppix /]# grub-install /dev/hda
/dev/hdd1 does not have any corresponding BIOS drive.
[root@Knoppix /]#
Any help will be much appreciated....

David
