Hi everybody,
I usually have no problem chainloading my distros from my menu.lst on the mbr but antix won't boot. My entry looks like this:
title AntiX 13
root (hd1,2)
chainloader +1
Antix grub is installed to the root on sdb3. What am I doing wrong? All the other distros I have on this machine(14 of them)
work fine with chainloading. Please help.

Try this instead.

Code: Select all

title AntiX 13
root (hd1,2)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-3.7.10-antix.3-486-smp root=/dev/sdb3 ro nomodeset nouveau.modeset=0 
initrd     /boot/initrd.img-3.7.10-antix.3-486-smp
If you are using 64 bit version change the 486 to amd64 and I'm guessing it is on /dev/sdb3
