Grub doesn't load

[Christopher Desjardins]

OK...I've decided to give Alpha1 a second shot at installing on my laptop...especially since pre-Alpha1 worked great.  So I went and installed Nexenta giving it 33% of my harddrive of 20 big gbs.  I didn't specify an 'active' partition.  I currently have Windows installed on this computer taking up 34% and I am planning on giving Ubuntu the other 33%. 
So the installation of Nexenta goes through fine.  fdisk, partition - no problem.  It then installs my packages and asks me to create a user then it asks me to install the grub MBR.  I think sure why not...it worked with pre-Alpha1.  But when I reboot all I get is a black screen with one word

GRUB

It doesn't let me do anything.  This is strange as it didn't happen with the pre-Alpha1 release - I was able to boot right into GDM.  Granted the pre-Alpha1 didn't recognize Windows or Linux but that's no big deal as I knew a priori that I would have to edit the menu.lst file.
So I've decided that I am going to install Ubuntu and try to edit /boot/grub/menu.lst to work from there.  I am curious what I should add to my menu.lst fine in Linux. 
It's installed on /dev/hdc2 and the slice is /dev/dsk/c1d0s0 that contains my (/) and /dev/dsk/c1d0s1 that contains my (/swap). 
Any ideas? 
Thanks!
Chris
