I have booted inot rescue mode many times as was never asked for country. Also for this purpose of configuring grub you don;t hqave to say you want to configure networking. It szhould identify the partitions it finds linuix on and ask you to chiise which you want to udr. I assume ther will be only one of those for you. Your / directory of Linux will be mounted on /mnt/sysimage. run a chroot /mnt/sysimage then try to run a : grub-install /dev/hdx (where x is the letter a.b . etc where your MBR is found.) As backup for the group why don't you post your /etc/grub.conf -- Aaron Konstam <akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
