Re-installed Hardy recently with the same problem. "GRUB" is shown on the screen, but does not go to stage 2.

Several buggy BIOSes don't pass a booting drive properly when booting from a hard disk drive. Therefore, you will unfortunately have to specify the option d, whether your Stage2 resides at the booting drive or not, if you have such a BIOS.
