Check to see if there is a /etc/lilo.conf in Kbumtu. If so, it is
using LILO instead of Grub as the boot loader. You can create an
entry in /etc/lilo.conf for Fedora. Use the same setup as Phil Meyer
talked about, but put this in /etc/lilo.conf

other=/dev/hdb1
      label="Fedora"

Then run lilo so that it knows about the change.
