Hmmm
I think I configed it wrong
I've put space in here
Code:

kernel (hd0,0)/boot/{Blablabla long name} root=/dev/hda3
my conf look like this
kernel (hd0,0) /boot/{Blablabla long name} root=/dev/hda3


I get an Error 1 massage in a massed up screen

Now... how do I get back to the stage where I can edit the grub.conf file?
I need to start the setup all over again? :cry:

No you dont have to start all over, just insert the boot-cd and mount the boot drive:
Code:
# mount /dev/hda1 /boot

(note: hda1 should be replaced with the partition where you actualy have the boot partition.)
Then edit the config file:
Code:
nano -w /boot/grub/menu.lst

(note: menu.lst may also be called menu.lst)
