Hi!
I can't see what I've done wrong here, so I'd be really grateful if one of you could help me out. Heres my menu.lst:
# (0) Arch Linux
title Arch Linux [/boot/vmlinuz]
root (hd0,1)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/discs/disc0/part2 ro
# (1) Arch 2.4
title Arch Linux 2.4 [/boot/vmlinuz-2.4]
root (hd0,1)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4 root=/dev/discs/disc0/part2 ro
# (2) Arch 2.6
title Arch Linux 2.6 [/boot/vmlinuz26]
root (hd0,1)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/discs/disc0/part2 devfs=nomount ro
Thanks!

With the newer kernels, you need to have
/dev/hda2
instead of
/dev/discs/disc0/part2

maybe you should add this in the begining of the menu.lst:
timeout 30
default 0
also, I suggest you to replace /dev/discs... to /dev/hdXY (or sdXY, if you have SATASCSI drive).

Ok, I've done all that and it still won't boot. Should I update grub, or will that make matters worse?

Have you recently updated your kernel?
in that case, you lack the line
initrd /boot/initrd26.img
after the kernel line.
What is happening? have all kernels suddenly stopped booting? Have you recently fiddled around with the kernel, boot or something? upgraded or otherwise. Or have you only used pacman, and upgraded something else?
Give us some meat on the bones
