Title: Grub problem

Hello,

New to fedora and have installed it, grub was default (I don't remember being able to choose lilo), It asked to create a boot disk, which I did. When the installation completed the harddisk comes up with a grub prompt at which I can't do much(or should I say, I don't know what to do). It however does boot from Floppy drive.

Now I usually use lilo with all my Redhat servers, so I don't know grub at all.
After reading the man page I soon realized I had no clue.
I am also too afraid to try and "play" with it as I might loose my WinXP partition.
So can anyone help me out with the synatx of the grub.conf file?

My machines configuration is as follows
/dev/hda1 WinXP partition.
/dev/hda2 /

How do I write grub to MBR so that it will run at bootup?

Many Thanks, any help will be appreciated.
Regards
Denham Eva
