Hello list,
I've got a grub menu.lst that looks like this:
default 0
timeout 5
title miva kernel v1.0B
root (hd0,0)
kernel /boot/kernel.bin
It's only showing the grub menu. Any idea how to get it to use the cd?
Thanks,

I'm not sure that grub is able to boot a cd. Try syslinux instead.

Hello,
I finally found an image to do what I want.
I'm working on making my own kernel, and am starting work on DMA and
paging--didn't want to have to deal with writing a boot loader too. :)
Thanks,

It is able to boot _from_ a cd, but not to boot a cd image if it's not
booted from it.
> Try syslinux instead.
It won't work better than grub in that regard.

Why not? The syslinux project contains isolinux, which is specifically
designed for booting cds.

For booting _from_ CDs, just like grub is able to, yes. Booting a CD
image is however much more difficult since you have to emulate a floppy
drive, etc.
