Replacing LILO with GRUB


I'm trying to replace LILO with GRUB, the command is
grub-install hdx
hda1 is my Windows 2000 drive/partition, hdb1 is /boot in Linux.
When I install GRUB do I install it to hda1 or hdb1 or somewhere else?

No, the book I had, RedHat Bible, said that once you ran that and edited the grub.conf grub would replace lilo, I did it and it works fine.
