What does "FAILS" actually mean? I assume that you are only getting to
the grub menu when booting from an F13 CD and chainloading to the
CentOS grub.

If my assumption about the grub menu is correct, one of your grub
stages must be broken. Have you tried re-installing grub with
grub-install or at the grub cli?

What is the output of "fdisk -l", "cat /etc/fstab", and "cat
/boot/grub/device.map"?
