Hi John:

When you edit grub.conf, make a complete new section with the proto statement 
in it like below.  That way you can always have a clean boot to fall back on 
in case.

title Fedora Core (2.6.9-1.667smp)
 root (hd0,0)
 kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667smp ro root=LABEL=/1
 initrd /initrd-2.6.9-1.667smp.img
title Fedora Core-up (2.6.9-1.667)
 root (hd0,0)
 kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667 ro root=LABEL=/1
 initrd /initrd-2.6.9-1.667.img

####### added for mouse workaround #######

title Fedora Core-up (2.6.9-1.667) - psmouse.proto=bare
 root (hd0,0)
 kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667 ro root=LABEL=/1 psmouse.proto=bare
 initrd /initrd-2.6.9-1.667.img 

HTH,
Tom
