The output of the fdisk command of my disk is as below
[root@pebble pradeep]# fdisk /dev/sda
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 19457.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
(e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

In the listing the partition /dev/sda6 is the /boot partition and when i mount it you will see the grub.conf file
[root@pebble pradeep]# mount /dev/sda6 /mydir/
[root@pebble pradeep]# ls /mydir/grub/
device.map ffs_stage1_5 menu.lst splash.xpm.gz vstafs_stage1_5
e2fs_stage1_5 grub.conf minix_stage1_5 stage1 xfs_stage1_5
fat_stage1_5 jfs_stage1_5 reiserfs_stage1_5 stage2
[root@pebble pradeep]#
I hope this helps
