The file looks like this:
# 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 (hd0,0)
# kernel /vmlinuz-version ro root=/dev/cciss/c0d0p3
# initrd /initrd-version.img
#boot=/dev/cciss/c0d0

Looks OK to me.

One RAID 5 system with 8x146G SCSI disks. This is partitioned
into "/boot", swap, and "/". No LVM.
