You should be able to get my package to compile. For your hard drive
you can try:
grubinst /boot/grub/stage1 /boot/grub/stage2
You should also make a file /boot/grub/menu.lst, which is similar to:
title=Linux 2.1.65
root=(hd0,3)
kernel=/boot/vmlinuz-2.1.65 root=/dev/hda4
title=Windows
root=(hd0,0)
chainloader=(hd0,0)+1
Where (hd0,3) is your Linux parition in GRUB notation and /dev/hda4 is
the parition in Linux notation. (All these commands can be typed
interactively, with tab completion, at boot time.)
