So I managed to upgrade to FC3 the installation finished succesfully. But 
when I try to boot I get stuck at grub stage 2.
I saw a post about possible problem with the partition tables, but that 
doesn't seem to be the problem (fdisk reports the same disk partitions as 
before I installed).
Using knoppix I am able to access the HD and all seems to be fine. 
grub.conf seems to be ok:
> less /boot/grub.conf
# grub.conf generated by anaconda
#
# Note that you do not have to rerun grub after making changes to this 
file
# NOTICE:  You do not have a /boot partition.  This means that
#          all kernel and initrd paths are relative to /, eg.
#          root (hd0,3)
#          kernel /boot/vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/hda4
#          initrd /boot/initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/hda
default=1
timeout=20
splashimage=(hd0,3)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Fedora Core (2.6.9-1.667smp)
         root (hd0,3)
         kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667smp ro root=LABEL=/
         initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.9-1.667smp.img
title Fedora Core (2.6.9-1.667)
         root (hd0,3)
         kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.9-1.667 ro root=LABEL=/
         initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.9-1.667.img
title DOS
         rootnoverify (hd0,0)
         chainloader +1


any help would be greatly appreciated.
