So i thought i had my Grub configured properly, but it looks like i made a mistake because all i've got is root (hd0,0)
Is there anyway for me to re-configure it from the Bootloader.
Or at least a good site that will help me in the right direction.
I'm still quite the newb at configuring stuff.

When grub comes up after a reboot, you can hit press "e" to go into edit mode. This will let you tweak things so you can get it to boot. After it is booted, you can edit the grub configuration. |

Ya i've been trying to do that with little success.
It doesn't seem to want to save the new bootage. :( |

When you edit the config that way, it doesn't actually save it for future boots. If you can get it to boot, you'll have to edit the grub conf file before the next reboot. |

Gotcha.
Also how do you get GRUB to boot from a CD that's still in.
I tried to boot from the Install Boot CD i'd be using and it doesn't. |

Not sure how to make it boot a CD. I probably just set the BIOS to boot from CD first and then restart. |
