the grub manual says (about error #15):

"This error is returned if the specified file name cannot be found, but everything else (like the disk/partition info) is OK"...

it's most likely a grub configuration issue... but did you try re-installing grub form your boot floppy/cd to see if it works???

the way i see it you have two choices, try to fix the current configuration, or nuke it and re-install grub, and if you re-install grub and it still doesn't work, well then we're back to choice one...

(of course there's always LILO)

=)

it would help us help you if you'd post some technical data, like your grub configuration, for example... also, the output of "df -hT" and "fdisk -l", among others...
