sudo mkdir /media/sdc1
sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sdc1 /media/sdc1
cat /media/sdc1/boot/grub/menu.lst
Copy the appropriate portion to your present menu.lst

O.K. it shows up in the boot menu. But whe I choose it I get error 15.
not found

Post:
cat /media/sdc1/boot/grub/menu.lst.
I'll edit your original menu.lst for you.

### BEGIN AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST
## lines between the AUTOMAGIC KERNELS LIST markers will be modified
## by the debian update-grub script except for the default options below

## DO NOT UNCOMMENT THEM, Just edit them to your needs

## ## Start Default Options ##
## default kernel options
## default kernel options for automagic boot options
## If you want special options for specific kernels use kopt_x_y_z
## where x.y.z is kernel version. Minor versions can be omitted.
## e.g. kopt=root=/dev/hda1 ro
## kopt_2_6_8=root=/dev/hdc1 ro
## kopt_2_6_8_2_686=root=/dev/hdc2 ro
# kopt=root=/dev/sda1 ro

## default grub root device
## e.g. groot=(hd0,0)
# groot=(hd0,0)

## should update-grub create alternative automagic boot options
## e.g. alternative=true
## alternative=false
# alternative=true

## should update-grub lock alternative automagic boot options
## e.g. lockalternative=true
## lockalternative=false
# lockalternative=false

## additional options to use with the default boot option, but not with the
## alternatives
## e.g. defoptions=vga=791 resume=/dev/hda5
# defoptions=splash vga=789 quiet

## altoption boot targets option
## multiple altoptions lines are allowed
## e.g. altoptions=(extra menu suffix) extra boot options
## altoptions=(recovery mode) single
# altoptions=(recovery mode) single

## controls how many kernels should be put into the menu.lst
## only counts the first occurence of a kernel, not the
## alternative kernel options
## e.g. howmany=all
## howmany=7
# howmany=all

## should update-grub create memtest86 boot option
## e.g. memtest86=true
## memtest86=false
# memtest86=false

## ## End Default Options ##

You have Linux in sda1 and sdc1. When you first posted your menu.lst I thought it was from sda1. Are you telling me that you have the same menu.lst in sda1 as in sdc1? Or are you changing the boot order of your hard drives? You talked of incorporating Kubuntu from your 'third' drive. Follow logos34 advice and see what happens.

Linux is on sda1 and sdc1. I have been working with the menu.lst from Sda1.
there is a menu.lst on sdc1. I unplugged the first 2 drives when I installed Kubuntu. I did not want to take a chance of messing up my main OS.

Oh by the way, I thank you very much for all help you have given me. I greatly appreciate the time and effort you put into this.

You are welcome. I'm still curious to see what your Kubuntu menu.lst looks like.
