try
root (hd0,0)
configfile /boot/grub/grub.conf or configfile /etc/grub.conf
boot
it should boot if unable to load the grub config file or try to manually define the root , vmlinuz and initrd paramaters and boot.
Eg:
root (hd0,1)
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.19.1 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet
initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.19.1.img
boot
