(^_^)The /dev/sda7 is wrong here. It should be in grub speak, which if this
(^_^)partition is correct, would be hdx,6, depending on how your system sees
(^_^)the sata controller. If it sees it as the first controller, hd0,6, if
(^_^)not, then depends on your IDE controller, perhaps hd2,6

(^_^)wrong root designation. See above.

(^_^)Which is the root partition? it assigned sda7 for resume, so that
(^_^)should be a swap partition.

(^_^)What does your /boot/grub/device.map look like, to know how grub sees
(^_^)your controllers?

I'll have to get back to you on that last request. (dinner is being
served) :-) The big question is, do I re-install and manually do this?
Do I or can I change this while the system is running?
Thanks (to all) for all the help.
