fresh install for dual boot with winxp : grub hangs

Dear all,

I'm trying to install fedora2 on a HP AMD64 box with winxp factory-installed.
I've got two disks, with xp installed on the first one.

after the reboot following the fedora install on the 2nd disk, all I get is: GRUB

using 'linux rescue' I tried to modify grub.conf with no success.

here's what fdisk tells me:

fdisk /dev/hda
/dev/hda    hda1    hp-recovery
                  hda2    NTFS (XP boot)

fdisk /dev/hdd
/dev/hdd    hdd1    swap
                  hda3    ext3 (Linux boot)

device.map says:

hd0    /dev/hda
hd1    /dev/hdd


has anybody got a glue how grub.conf is supposed to look like for grub to work on my system.


right now I'm pretty much dead in the water - can't boot into any OS!


H.
