[NBLUG/talk] Boot loader

[Mark Street]

OK, either the binary is not in your path or grub is NOT installed.

/sbin/grub-install /dev/hda

If that doesn't work.  Place your CD into the drive and install grub with an 
rpm -ivh grub...blah.rpm.  If you have networking up issue the yum command to 
install grub          # yum install grub

After you have it installed from rpm issue the grubinstall /dev/hda command 
and see.

Your grub.conf looks peachy keen.
