Question Don't see menu interface of Grub when booting

Dear Fedora users,

I'm newbie in Linux. I installed Fedora 7 on my computer with Vista. When I boot my PC, I don't se menu interface of Grub, just see command line interface.
I just see menu interface when I enter command "configfile /grub/menu.lst", although in menu.lst don't have command "hiddenmenu"
How can I see menu of Grub when I boot my system?
Anybody know how to solve this problem? please help me.
Thank you.
Phuong.

can you please post your whole grub.conf file here?

Code:
cat /etc/grub.conf

Just a suggestion though, try to reinstall it (grub).

Hi Hermouche,
I'm reinstall, now, everything is ok. Thank you for your help.
I think the problem is Grub install on (hd0,1) instead of (hd0). Thanks again.
Phuong.

Hi phuongtqh

Next time it might be simpler to just edit the /boot/grub/grub.conf file as indicated here.
Code:
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file
# NOTICE:  You have a /boot partition.  This means that
#          all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /boot/, eg.
#          root (hd0,1)
#          kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hda3
#          initrd /initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hda
default=0
timeout=30
splashimage=(hd0,1)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
#hiddenmenu
title Fedora Core (2.6.18-1.2849.fc6)
	root (hd0,1)
	kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6 ro root=LABEL=/1 rhgb quiet
	initrd /initrd-2.6.18-1.2849.fc6.img
title Fedora Core (2.6.18-1.2798.fc6)
	root (hd0,1)
	kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 ro root=LABEL=/1 rhgb quiet
	initrd /initrd-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6.img
title Fedora Core (runlevel 3) (2.6.18-1.2798.fc6)
	root (hd0,1)
	kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6 ro root=LABEL=/1  3
	initrd /initrd-2.6.18-1.2798.fc6.img
