Patrick,

I don't know if it'll help you put here's the extract from the notes
I've been making on setting up 6.3.6 regarding grub -

Find this group of lines in the imagename.master install script -

[ -z $DEVICE ] && DEVICE=eth0
chroot /a/ systemconfigurator --excludesto=/etc/systemimager/systemconfig.local.
exclude --runboot || shellout

[INTERFACE0]
DEVICE = eth0

EOL

and comment them all out. In theory systemconfigurator installs the bootloader.
In practice it screws it up so install the bootloader with
grub-install by adding these lines immediately after those you just
commented out -

echo
echo "Installing grub bootloader"
echo "chroot /a/ grub-install --recheck $DISK0"
chroot /a/ grub-install --recheck $DISK0|| shellout
echo "Done installing grub"
echo
# Use $DISK0 in the grub install line so it works for both machines with
# SATA and machines with PATA harddics.

If you want the install script to deal with the target machine having
a PATA harddisk where the golden client uses SATA or vice versa, find
the line which says

# BEGIN disk edits

Just after that they'll be a list of files in a for loop like 'for file in /etc/
fstab otherfiles;do'. To that list of files add /etc/mtab and
/boot/grub/menu.lst

I think using Fedora you're want /boot/grub/grub.conf instead of
/boot/grub/menu.lst

hth,

mike
