I'm betting he's using RedHat :-)

My FC3 box has menu.lst as a symlink to grub.conf.  Grub seems to be happy 
with either of these names.  Painful experience suggests that if both files 
are present, then "menu.lst" will "win".

Jeremy: for distros that just have menu.lst, could you search for this too?  
Perhaps it's worth implementing a grub-style precedence for menu.lst when 
present and grub.conf if not?

Cheers,
Mark
