That was the problem, the XFS I was using. Once I got the newest release built and installed, everything worked as it should. Yaaay! I can't thank you enough for your help. It's really a very simple and painless process, if all things are correct. Now I just need to add some other entries to use, plus I would like to make the loader screen a bit prettier. If I just want to boot to runlevel 3, can I use the standard boot entry that takes me to the gui and just add "append=3" as the last entry? I also want to add a memtest entry. The boot loader screen is themeable, isn't it or you can use a graphic, jpg or png, etc? Sorry for all the questions, but I'm excited that it finally works. Now I want to start playing and learning.
