Dear Paul,
I have done the following,

1.  made a new file splash.xpm.gz
2.  #grub-install /dev/hda
3. grub
       grub>  root (hd0,2)
       grub>  install /grub/stage1 (hd0) /grub/stage2 p /grub/menu.lst
       grub>  quit

When I rebooted my system goes to the grub screen. Again I had to enter 
entering rescue mode to alter all changes to boot sucessfully.

I have attached my grub.conf for your reference.

Regards,
Rajiv
