How about us dual booters on Sata,

My partitions are labelled Sda, Ubuntu root is on
SDA4, XP is on SDA1, suggestions ? or leave well alone.

Just copy paste line for line of the quote in a terminal
It should work for everyone.

this is what I did but nevermind it mess up my grub and I could not boot xp or ubuntu after 5 hours of tring to fix it I gave up so I did a clean install

You need to paste the line
gfxmenu /boot/grub/message
in the menu.lst, somewhere in the beginning, and also do

sudo grub

and then type root (hd0,0) or whatever
Also, does anyone know how to compile the Ubuntu theme for gfxboot?

I did this and now when I boot, all I get is a grub cli.

I was able to boot from the Live CD and figure out how to get my Linux partition up but now, I have no real grub config to speak of, other than command line.

I think it will be great if you'll add a warning asking to save the menu.lst before beginning so things like that: http://www.ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1229960
will not happen...
