But that still seems like the place where things hang. I went through the sequence of grub commands, beginning with root (hd1,5), and through loading the kernel. From there:

Did you type in ".img"? If so, why?
I typed it in by way of trying to follow your directions in your message received here today at 16:27:29 (10:27 your time if you are on ET). Here is your model:
grub> initrd /boot/init<tab>.img Possible files are: initrd.img-2.6.12 initrd.img
I understood from this that we were seeking a file with a name of the form "initrd*.img". Looking at your model just above, that is still what it seems to me to be saying quite clearly. Please correct me if I am misinterpreting.
grub> find /boot/initrd.img
grub> find /boot/initrd-2.6.34-12.3-desktop
grub> find /boot/initrd
There is an "initrd" on both disks. Presumably that is the file I need.
Try proceeding only with an initrd that Grub found.
Alternatively, or after, try:
grub> initrd (hd1,5)/boot/initrdTAB
to see the initrd(s) that exist on (hd1,5), complete as desired if desired, then
grub> boot
I repeated the same sequence of commands as before, beginning with grub> root (hd1,5) and loading the kernel.
