Hi Mike,
I figure out how to get it work.
1) type grub-install
the screen will show the many options available within
grub
2) then type grub-install --force-lba /dev/hda1
instead of grub-install /dev/had1
3) then type exit
4) then remove the CD
5) type exit(again)
6) the machine will reboot and grub interface shows
up two options: linux and dos.
I select linux and it goes to linux.
Compared to booting from floppy it will take a much
longer time to go to linux for the first time. But
after this it takes much short time to boot to linux.
Thanks,
Li
