Install on SDD card in eeePC boot problem with Grub

Hi, I've installed slitaz-3.0-firefox.iso from a USB stick to a (ext3 formatted) 128MB SDD card on my eeePC. The install went ok*, but there is an error at boot time...

root (hd2,0)

Error21: Selected disk does not exist

Press any key...

Here is the boot code...

root (hd2,0)

kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.30.6-slitaz root=/dev/sdc1

AFAIK, /dev/sdc1 is the correct location of the SDD card. Apart fro that, I'm clueless about some lower level linux stuff

I've checked the contents of the SDD card and it looks like there is a file-system. Is this then just a matter of fixing the grub menu?

*There was originally an error with the install. To install correctly, I had to use the mountbox to loop the .iso and mount it on the /CDROM. Install then worked ok.

Thanks.

Edit your menu.lst (/boot/grub/)

root hd(2,0) > root(hd0,0)

and append to kernel .... rootdelay=8
