Question adding a distro to GRUB

hello,

i have downloaded and burned ISO's for Slackware, and subsequently had no problem installing it on a new partition... However, when i installed (v.12.1), i opted not to install lilo to boot Slackware with. Now, when i reboot or start up my comp, grub doesn't see the Slackware distro...

i know there is a way to make grub see this, but can anyone tell me how? i am a newbie, but am very comfortable with the command line; i just request that anyone who helps me explain what i should be doing and have patience.


thanks for your help
