I use this, change it for yourself, and it should work fine.:

boot=/dev/hda
install=/boot/boot.b
map=/boot/map
compact
vga=5
delay=100
default=linux
image=/vmlinuz
     label=linux
     root=/dev/hdc1
     read-only
     password=<password>
     restricted
image=/vmlinuz.old
     label=oldlinux
     root=/dev/hdc1
     optional
     read-only
other=/dev/hda1
     label=Win98
     loader=/boot/chain.b
     table=/dev/hda
