Hi all,

I have Redhat 9 and Windows XP installed on the same system, and at the moment 
I am using a boot floppy to boot into Redhat.

I tried to install GRUB on the MBR by running /sbin/grub-install /dev/hda but 
when I rebooted the system, I am dumped at the grub> prompt.

I tried using GRUBConf to set up my boot menu, where it set up the menu in 
/boot/grub/menu.lst The contents of this menu follows:

---/boot/grub/menu.lst begin
# Generated by grubconf-0.5
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,5)/grub/splash.xpm.gz

title Redhat Linux 9
#:0 <-- type: 0 => linux, 1 => windows, 2 => other
        root (hd0,5)
        kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.20-8 root=/dev/hda7
title Windows XP Professional
#:1 <-- type: 0 => linux, 1 => windows, 2 => other
        rootnoverify (hd0,0)
        makeactive
        chainloader +1
---/boot/grub/menu.lst end

As far as I can make out, this should enable me to select either Windows XP or 
Redhat to boot, but I don't see the splash screen or a menu...

What to I need to do to get it up and running? Pointers and HOWTO links would 
be appreciated, step-by-step instructions even more so.

Thanks for your help,
The Devil's Advocate.
