if you got something like this

grub>

then you have something wrong with you boot image
so you have to boot from the 1st cd
and go to rescue mode and reinstall grub backage again

Try this:

Insert your first installation cd into your cd-rom / dvd rom.

reboot your computer

enter bios, set start with cdrom.

reboot.

when you enter the first install page, press F4, enter linux rescure mode.

setup basic info, go on. when shows sh#, type grub

grub>root (hdX,Y)
grub>setup (hd0)

X, Y is the variable of which hard drive and which partition you installed / are going to install linux.

if shows Successful...., then it successed.
