!!! yes, i'd be concerned about that too, best to make 100% sure that you won't be getting back into windows ...
Sorry, i would help, but i don't know anything about grub.
voidmain:
Well I don't know what to tell you unless you answer my questions about the output of "/sbin/fdisk -l /dev/hda" and "/sbin/fdisk -l /dev/hdb".
NESnerd:
hda and hdb do nothing, it only works as hdf and hde. But here's what I got. And I put in the grub.conf file too. (When I try to go into Windows, it's doing the thing about the file system is FAT, partition type 0xc, and then I have to reset my machine...)
Disk /dev/hdf: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 784 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hdf1 * 1 6 48163+ 83 Linux
/dev/hdf2 7 687 5470132+ 83 Linux
/dev/hdf3 688 784 779152+ 82 Linux swap
Disk /dev/hde: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 1870 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hde1 * 1 1870 15020743+ c Win95 FAT32 (LBA)
Here's my grub.con ile

# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this file

# initrd /initrd-version.img
