Ok, after a lot of tinkering around, i found the way:

grub>set root=(hd0,1)
grub>linux (hd0,1)/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.21-2-486 root=/dev/sda1 ro

grub>initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.21-2-486
grub>boot

This should do it. I think this all should be present in the grub.cfg
file which should have been created by grub-install.
The default grub-install did not create this file. I will manually
create this file and try to boot it.

Thanks,
Andev.
