This machine is a bit odd in that its actual boot partition isn't even mounted by FC4. Somehow, in rigging it for dual booting of FC4 and emc's bdi, its now booting from (hd1,0) instead of (hd0,0), so that when a new kernel is installed as was the case this morning, I have to hand modify the /dev/hdb1/grub/menu.lst and copy all the new stuffs from /dev/hda1 to /dev/hdb1, which when its booted to FC4, can be hand mounted as /mnt/bdi-boot. /dev/hda1 is mounted by FC4 as /boot, but thats not where it boots from.

I'd suggest adding an entry:

title Fedora Core 4
        rootnoverify (hd0,1)
        chainloader +1

to /dev/hdb1/grub/menu.lst

You should then be able to pick FC4 from the OS's boot menu, and never have to fiddle with grub entries again.
