              ****CORRECTION****

This is happening in Hampton not Pensacola

             ****CORRECTION****

If at the grub command line, you try to boot manually using the lines in the
stanza in the grub.conf, does it work?  Also, if you boot to rescue mode and run
fdisk on the hard drive, are there actually partitions there?

Tested with beta2 and recieved expected behavior. Please test again and confirm.
