Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

Is this a new installation?
Did you have your system working? If so, did you make any changes just prior to this problem?
Your root (hd0,0) shows Linux on the first partition of the first drive.
Your root (hd0,1) shows Linux LVM partition.
What distribution are you using, Fedora? CentOS? other?
Either Grub wasn't installed or it is looking in the wrong partition for the boot files so do you have a LiveCD you can use to get partition information as well as the menu.lst to post here? Or do you have another Linux OS on the computer to use?
You haven't given enough information for anyone to really help.
You would need to use the LiveCD or another Linux OS on the machine to mount the partitions to get to the menu.lst file. You can run the fdisk command from the LiveCD from a terminal. Don't know what your knowledge level is so if you don't know how to do this, post back and include the information requested above.
