grub problem


the situation is first i installed RHEL 5 then Fedora core 7 ,then to boot both them have to edit the grub.conf.

now if i want to delete Fedora core 7 and only want to use the first one (RHEL5)then what should i do with grub.conf

this grub.conf from fedora core 7

Code:
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE:  You do not have a /boot partition.  This means that
#          all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /, eg.
#          root (hd0,9)
#          kernel /boot/vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hda10
#          initrd /boot/initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hda
default=0
timeout=5
splashimage=(hd0,9)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
hiddenmenu
title Fedora (2.6.23.17-88.fc7)
	root (hd0,9)
	kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.23.17-88.fc7 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
	initrd /initrd-2.6.23.17-88.fc7.img

title Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (2.6.18-8.el5)
	root (hd0,0)
	kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-8.el5 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
	initrd /initrd-2.6.18-8.el5.img

[/CODE]
remove the above one from grub.conf file and check where did you install the fedora then format that also.

I hope it works.

thanks

You can also change your timeout to timeout=0
