boot error on hd1,0

User-agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.2.17) Gecko/20110501 Mandriva/3.1.10-0.1mdv2010.2 (2010.2) Lightning/1.0b2 Thunderbird/3.1.10

I have 3 SATA drives, with grub in the MBR of hd0.

I have three OS installed, one in HD0,0 HD0,9 the other in HD1,0.

I have tried several different boot methods. The latest one is this:

Menu.lst of hd0,9/boot/grub;

timeout 10
color black/cyan yellow/cyan
gfxmenu (hd0,9)/boot/gfxmenu
default 0

title linux
kernel (hd0,9)/boot/vmlinuz BOOT_IMAGE=linux root=LABEL=root splash=silent vga=788
initrd (hd0,9)/boot/initrd.img

title linux-nonfb
kernel (hd0,9)/boot/vmlinuz BOOT_IMAGE=linux-nonfb root=LABEL=root linux-nonfb
initrd (hd0,9)/boot/initrd.img

title failsafe
kernel (hd0,9)/boot/vmlinuz BOOT_IMAGE=failsafe root=LABEL=root failsafe
initrd (hd0,9)/boot/initrd.img

title Mageia
configfile (hd1,0)/boot/grub/menu.lst

menu.lst of hd1,0/boot/grub is:
timeout 10
color black/cyan yellow/cyan
gfxmenu (hd1,0)/boot/gfxmenu
default 0

title linux
kernel (hd1,0)/boot/vmlinuz BOOT_IMAGE=linux root=LABEL=newroot splash=silent vga=788
initrd (hd1,0)/boot/initrd.img

title windows
root (hd0,0)
makeactive
chainloader +1


My problem is whatever method I use, I cannot boot from hd1,0.
Error is partition doesn't exist.

Pressing return to continue and attempting to boot from hd0,9, produces an error about number of cylinders being wrong ( don't remember exactly ). Only cure is a soft reboot.

If someone would point me in the right direction or let me know whatever other info I need to supply, I'd be most grateful.

Jim
