Help Configuring Grub

[neobyte]

I created a multipass with a few tools today but I believe I am missing some part of my grub config. As of right now, every tool I have on the multipass (with the exception of Kon-boot and memtest) boots, but then gives me some kind of error related to lacking a root and then drops me into a busybox shell.

On the debian/ubuntu systems, I get this:

(initramfs) Unable to find a medium containing a live file system 

This is my current menu.lst file:

color red/black white/red

title Memtest

I know it's a bit of a mess, but I've been trying everything I can think of to get this to work. Any tips?

try

root (hd0,0)

or if you have a 2012 grldr chenall version, use

root (bd)

where bd=boot device
