here is the problem...after finishing the Installation, i reboot then Windows XP boots up like normal instead of grub. so i went into BIOS changed boot priority to :
1. [CDROM]
2. [HDD-1]
3. [HDD-0]
then all i get is a bash line:
GRUB>_
This can be caused by GRUB not being able to find the
grub/grub.conf file.
from here i don't know what to do...i find it odd that
stage2 didn't load.
Hmm. What was the disc setup when you installed GRUB? Has it
changed? What does your grub.conf file look like? Have you
tried to boot by hand? (I mean, have you entered the
commands to try to load Linux by hand at the GRUB> prompt?)
GRUB has a "find" command which may help you figure out
what has gone wrong.
it should be known that i'm using two hard drives.
tried using OSL2000 bootloader but that didn't work either, so i took it back off. i don't understand why it's doing this. FC4 didn't have this issue. thinking about trying the text based install and seeing what happens...but i'd rather not go that way. I'll wait for responses first before i make a decision.
*note*
i'm still a newbie to linux. kinda half migrating from MS untill i get comfortable with linux.
Everyone starts somewhere.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
