How can I get this to show me the option for Fedora > or boot directly into fedora? You get a "grub>" prompt if GRUB cannot find a config file. Either this file is not there, or GRUB is just not finding it. There should be a /boot/grub/grub.conf file with links to it from /etc/grub.conf and /boot/grub/menu.lst Boot from the rescue CD and see if you can find any of the above files. If so, look at them and report back the content. Do you have a /boot/ partition? If so, you should point grub-install to that partition instead of / Jonthan
