No entries seen in grub 2 menu

Hi all,
   First of all Robert, thanx for answering.  I know grub2 uses
grub2.cfg & not menu.lst but was thinking if there is some way
whatever is in grub.cfg can be passed to menu.lst so in some way I can
see the menu without changing the entries manually, but now it seems
there is no way to do it unless I just am on grub 0.97
   Now there is another thing which has been the same for the last 6
months. There is no menu entries in grub2. I get the rectangular box &
that's it. Just for reference here are the same 2 links :-

http://pastebin.ca/877007 menu.lst (which is of grub 0.97 or grub legacy)

http://pastebin.ca/877010 grub.cfg ( the newer grub uses this)

Now from what little I understand when I click on the first option it
chainloads to grub2 & tries to read grub.cfg . Now something or the
other doesn't get it right for I'm not able to see any of the entries.
I don't know whether it has anything to do with unifont.pff or
something else?

I know unifont has been having some problems. I reported one such
thing about 6-7 months which hasn't moved anywhere till now.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unifont/+bug/122565 .
Subsequently I see this mail
http://www.mail-archive.com/address@hidden/msg19430.html
& it isn't encouraging. If unifont has some issues how can we use
other fonts? What is the *.pff extension?  This again may be a repost
hence apologies if they are.
