I have a triboot machine (windowsxp,centos5.2,and Fedora 9).
I have been using FC9's grub bootloader to boot to any system without
any problem.
Today I single-mode logon to centos5.2 and type grub
and then "root (hd0,3)" and "setup (hd0)" in order to use the CentOS5.2
boot loader.
When I reboot the computer, I cannot boot to Fedora 9 any more:
error message is this :

Luckily I can still boot to CentOS5.2 or WindowsXP.
The menu list (with the entry copied from the Fedora 9)
is

If I cannot boot to Fedora 9, it means I am going to lose it (I cannot locate my FC9 Installation DVD)..
Thanks for the help.
