Angry installation redhat 7.2


I installed Linux 7.2 on a new drive. The computer had windows 2000 and windows 2000 recovery console installed on the other drive. My first problem is that while the mouse was active during installation, at first boot I get the message that the mouse has been removed and I am given the choice of either keeping its configuration, removing it or doing nothing. None of the choices gets my mouse back. Any ideas?
The second problem is that I put GRUB on the boot partition in the new drive and I am offered no choice to boot linux. I have been using a boot disk. What is wrong?

Well if your linux drive isn't the first drive on the boot menu in your bios then it won't bootup using grub because it isn't seeing it but rather it is going to win2k first. DOn't have any ideas for the mouse, b/c I just started using x.
