Hi, 

I am trying to reinstall to the master boot block on my harddrive. Fedora (FC2).

I booted from a bootable floppy  using this command
grub-install --root-directory=/mnt fd0  and it worked fine.

and I tried 2 different ways to run grub-install for the hard drive both said 
it ran successfully.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# grub-install --root-directory=/boot hd0 
and
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# grub-install --root-directory=/boot   /dev/hda

However when I reboot from the hard drive, I am put into the grub utility and 
can't seem to get it to boot fully.

#1
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# grub-install --root-directory=/boot hd0

Installation finished. No error reported.
This is the contents of the device map /boot/boot/grub/device.map.
Check if this is correct or not. If any of the lines is incorrect,
fix it and re-run the script `grub-install'.
 
(fd0)   /dev/fd0
(hd0)   /dev/hda

Peace and all good things,
