There is only one file to edit - /etc/grub.d/40_custom. I think Tom H is
suggesting you have
menuentry "DOS (loader) (on /dev/sda1)" {
insmod part_msdos
insmod fat
set root='(hd0,1)'
chainloader +1
}
You can check DOS is on /dev/sda1 using 'cfdisk /dev/sda'.
file -s /dev/sda (as root) will also show you what the partition/drive is,
but that's trivial, as long as it works for you.
