Here's the lilo & grub config files.

# 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 (hd1,0)
#          kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hdd2
#          initrd /initrd-version.img

and someone wanted the partition layout of hda...

Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 2220 cylinders
