GRUB problems on Fedora 7

[kelp412]

Hello,
I am running Fedora 7 with Windoze XP, and the GRUB is all messed up! I had Vista on the Windoze partition, but I decided for the better performace of XP, so I put that on the W partion, and when I rebooted, it just went straight to XP. I put in the Fedora 7 CD, and tried upgrading the system. But that did not want to reinstall the GRUB, so I did the rescue mode, and did

# grub-install --root-directory/boot /dev/sda

That looked like it went fine, so I rebooted. Now the GRUB came up, but it was only text mode, and I have no idea what to do to get it to boot, as I have only used the GUI one that Fedora usually has. What should I do?

Thanks!

Boot from the installation disk and choose Linux rescue at the installation menu.

Get to the root Fedora filesystem, by chroot /mnt/sysimage in console

This gets you to the root of the Fedora filesystem.

Then type grub-install /dev/hda

and then press exit and reboot your machine
