Well, I got everything working, except for one thing - I could not get
Grub installed on the MBR of the hard disk.
Still, it's not a problem - I upgraded to FC3, and that has installed
Grub on the MBR for me, so now all is fine.
But I would like to know what I was doing wrong, in case I need to do
it again.
What I did was:
root (hd0,4)
setup(hd0)
This seemed to work - installation and verification were all reported
as working. But when I cam to boot, I saw no messages from Grub
(neither loading stage 2 nor hard disk error nor anything). It just
seemed to stop.
