I created the system as follow :

.. no reboot or rmmod nftl;insmod nftl here? If that worked, you were lucky.

Er, what partitioning? If you have only one useful partition, why have a 
partition table at all? Just use /dev/nftla for your filesystem.

What Grub presents you with isn't bash, it's a tiny command prompt which 
allows you access to the Grub commands. You should be able to get Grub to 
boot from the hard drive by telling it something like
	root=(hd0,0)
	chainloader = +1
	boot

I don't know why Grub isn't finding the menu. Maybe you need to set 
the default boot_drive to match (dc0,0) ?
