Hi,

You seem to have messed up a bit the partitions where grub is told to look for installed OSs it is in charge of booting.

Literally, error 22 means

22 : No such partition
This error is returned if a partition is requested in the device part of a device- or full file name which isn't on the selected disk.


This, more or less, is telling you that grub is unable to locate the partition where the OS kernels and boot support files are stored.

To recover from this situation youŽll be likely be forced to boot in rescue mode, mount the file system where the /boot directory is stored, go to /boot/grub and edit menu.lst so that every stanza points to the right place.

If not familiar with grub, find its manual here:
GNU GRUB Manual 0.97

Regards.
