SOmething about MSDOS needs to be in the zero sector partition

Here is my 2014 grub.cfg

# menu.lst - See: grub(8), info grub, update-grub(8)
## default num
# Set the default entry to the entry number NUM. Numbering starts from 0, and
# the entry number 0 is the default if the command is not used.
default		1
timeout		177
color cyan/blue white/blue
#Quantian bootable partition config begins
   title Quantian on (/dev/sda6)
   root	(hd0,5)
   kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda6 ro ramdisk_size=100000 init=/etc/init lang=us apm=power-off nomce quiet vga=791 
   initrd /boot/initrd.img
   savedefault
   boot
# QUANTIAN bootable partition config ends
