If I type grub-install it says no such file or directory.
I tried less /boot/grub/grub.conf same thing.
I did boot with the centos cd as if I was installing and used manual
partion to see if the partions where still there and they are.
No sure what to do now. I will try and search for grub-install. I am
assuming that I am searching the cd?
