Can't get GRUB installed.

I am having trouble booting up core6.  I installed it earlier today and 
after trying to find a way to get Grub to work I formatted the drive and 
started over.

Now I am back at the same prompt with no core6 running.  Grub does not 
appear and the result is - Windows comes up rather than linux.

I am totally lost now.  There is no sign at all that there is even Linux 
installed on this computer, and yet I just took off centos which was 
working fine and it used grub as its windows manager.

I have two harddrives (hda and hdb).
HDA is for Windows and HDB for Linux.

That is how it was with centos and previous versions of linux such as 
core5.  It always worked fine.
Now I get nothing when I reboot the machine other than windows..

What am I overlooking?  And is there a way that I can bring up this 
installed version of Fedora (core6) using the rescue disk?  If this is 
possible what would be the boot line to get things running?
