Although you say you've solved this, just for curiosity's sake, can you
remember where you told the installer to put GRUB?
I set up FC6 dual-booting on a friend's XP, it did not put GRUB
on /dev/hda like I told it to, I had your problem. I had to manually
re-install GRUB. GRUB's fine, there's something screwy with the FC6
installation routine.
