Problem installing lupu-511: grub error 15

[Sathors]

So I already have lupu-501 installed on a usb key and everything went fine during the install.

But now I'm trying to install lupu-511 on my netbook and I don't find any solution to my problem.

To proceed with the install I burned the iso on a usb key using Unetbootin, and then I'm using that on my netbook to make the full install.

I've installed it on a hard drive (an ssd drive in fact).
I've found something strange though, I can't find the file vmlinuz anywhere.
When it asked me where to find the lupu-511.sfs file I've put /initrd/mnt/tmpfs/lupu-511.sfs. Is this location good ?
I don't remenber this file being here.

Apart from that I've already checked my menu.lst, which seems ok.
Can you help me ?

Thank you very much and good night.

Hi,
Please be aware, there are versions of Puppy made to run on Netbooks:

eeePC Netbook - use Puppeee
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=48288

other Netbooks - use Fluppy
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=56156

I would download Puppeee or Fluppy and start over. If you have problems, come back to this Forum and start a new Thread in the relevant section.

Best wishes and Welcome to Puppy !!

Please post it.

My menu.lst :

fdisk's output :

For the netbook distros I'll have a look at it but I wanted to try the new version of lucid puppy.

Thank you.
