I don't use grub, but as you will see below, it is installed. (I have had to 
use it in the past for system recovery when my commercial boot manager 
corrupted the MBR.)

I don't remember what it said beyond being a "kernel panic" - it was early in 
the boot sequence, at the place where it usually fails if lilo hasn't been 
run when it should have been. I can't find messages from that boot attempt in 
any of the log files in /var/log, and I have since run lilo, so I won't be 
able to replicate it.
