  1. I know what the problem is as stated earlier you have the menu.lst as a text doc so your gonna have to uncheck the option "Hide extensions for known file types"

    this will show that you have menu.lst.txt

    Just delete the .txt and save

    Should work now!

    nope wrong sorry

  2. Sounds like that's exactly what's wrong.

    find /menu.lst, /boot/grub/menu.lst, /grub/menu.lst
    commandline
    reboot
    halt

    Is the default list that's actually found in grldr, so your menu.lst can't be found. To view file extensions open an explorer window (double click a folder or "My Computer"), go to Tools > Folder Options... and select the "View" tab. Find where it says "Hide extensions for known file types" and uncheck that box. Now make sure your menu.lst is really "menu.lst" and not "menu.lst.txt"

    yep i did that and looked on usbdrive and showed up ( winlogfile and a file with just a . with all cammands in it

    starting to bug me now

  3. Could you please say everything you did exactly, you might have missed something because that is all I can think of. Also, have you tried it on a different computer, might just be something on that one computer.
