Hi there,

Recently I put UbuntuStudio on my computer, after I already had Ubuntu 8.04 installed.
I used separate partitions for this.

Now, I got the advice to use a chainloader for kernel updates (I'm guessing because Ubuntustudio does not let me use wireless), but I'm not very well known with GRUB.
(So far, I managed to get the computer to boot the first install(8.04) first, by changing /media/disk/boot/grub/menu.lst)

From what I did read about chainloading, there must be something changed with in the same file, so here is what it looks like.

Thanks.
