using grub menu.lst to launch grub2 distro

[houndhen]

Not new to LInux but still dumb as dirt....

I run PCLOS KDE 32 bit as my main distro on a multi-boot pc. PCLOS is located at /dev/sda9. In installed the grub2 distro at /dev/sda12. The grub2 disto overwrote the mbr and created the files that grub2 creates. Then, after doing the update after re-booting the grub2 distro, I booted into PCLOS and reset the MBR to use grub that is located on /dev/sda9. Now I haven't been able to get my menu.lst entry to let me back into /dev/sda12. Here is my entry in menu.lst:

title Solydk
#set root='(/dev/sda,msdos12)'
#kernel /boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-4-686-pae root=UUID=a81ddce6-5725-4a89-8777-5a443be8ea0a ro  quiet splash
#initrd /boot/initrd.img-3.2.0-4-686-pae
root (hdo,11)
chainloader +1

As you can see, I commented out the three lines that didn't work. Needless to say the others didn't work either. I got grub error 23 with the commented out lines and grub 15 error with the uncommented lines.

Here is the grub.cfg menu entry from the grub2 distro:

menuentry 'SolydXK GNU/Linux, with Linux 3.2.0-4-686-pae' --class solydxk --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os {
	load_video
	set gfxpayload=800x600
	insmod gzio
	insmod part_msdos
	insmod ext2
	set root='(/dev/sda,msdos12)'
	search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root a81ddce6-5725-4a89-8777-5a443be8ea0a
	echo	'Loading Linux 3.2.0-4-686-pae ...'
	linux	/boot/vmlinuz-3.2.0-4-686-pae root=UUID=a81ddce6-5725-4a89-8777-5a443be8ea0a ro  quiet splash
	echo	'Loading initial ramdisk ...'
	initrd	/boot/initrd.img-3.2.0-4-686-pae
}

I have read quite a bit from 'How I did it" and the sticky 'Boot Tips'. It seems the more I read, the more confused I get. Can someone get me headed in the right direction to get the menu.lst entry correct?
Thanks,
