Yep.  Boot to rescue mode with your FC* Disk 1.  (At the boot: prompt,
put "linux rescue".)  Let it mount your Linux installation when it
finds it.  Then

 chroot /mnt/sysimage
 grub-install /dev/hda # or whatever your boot drive is
 exit
 exit

Yeah, exit twice - once from the chroot shell and once from rescue.
Pop out the cd and the normal grub stuff should come up when it
reboots.

Cheers,
