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>_  
 
from here i don't know what to do...i find it odd that 
stage2 didn't load.

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.
