Way to go Mark. I knew you would get it if you just keep plugging at it. Guess I need to update my notes about the spaces.

Thanks, Daniel and Russell, for your help. Just for future reference, here are two helpful links:

http://www.goaf.net/grub.html

The problem in my case was one blank space:

kernel  <sp> (hd0,0) <sp> /boot/vmlinuz <sp> root=/dev/hda1

is what I thought, but

kernel  <sp> (hd0,0)/boot/vmlinuz <sp> root=/dev/hda1

is the correct syntax.

I changed tack, though, and used the grub command sequence

root (hd0,0)
setup (hd0)

The rest was a no-brainer. Except the minor issue that /boot is not correct, the box runs again.
