Hello,
can you please put your grub menu.lst configurations somewhere and post a link, so we can have a look.
Do I understand it correctly, that you want to add a grub boot entry to an existing Linux installation ? That means that the Genode and Kernel binaries are located somewhere on a harddisk and not on a CDROM/ISO image anymore ?
If yes, are the kernel binary and the Genode binaries located on the same partition of the harddisk or they are on potential different partitions ? Do they have the same filesystem type ? Which filesystem you are using ?
Cheers,
Alex.

Hello,
it seems that Grub legacy never had ext4 support originally [0], however there exists some patches according to [1] and Trusted Grub [2] seems to have taken them.
I don't know whether the ext4 support of Trusted Grub is feature complete to boot a recent ext4 setup (ext4 patch in TrustedGrub ~2009, ext4 fs setup from 2012).
I would suggest to try to use a known to work fs for Legacy Grub like ext2 and others. If this works, you know that the ext4 boot support needs some adjustments to get it working again.
Your menu.lst looks good, so it just should boot.
Cheers,
Alex.
