no - not normal

sounds as if you didn't allow grub to install the necessary stuff
into /dev/hda

try this...

boot disk 1
skip media check
type 'linux rescue' and press enter at boot prompt

when finished loading...

type 'chroot /mnt/sysimage'
type 'grub-install -v /dev/hda'

type 'exit'
type 'exit'

see if it reboots

note - don't include the single quotes - they were for your
identification only
