Note this does not overwrite your mbr only makes the file available.
KDE users in Konqueror-Click on the rpm file and kpackage should start
then click on the rpm file and
click on install marked button. See the help in KDE if any problems.

Command/terminal/console/shell users
$ su
$ root password
$ rpm -ivh /pathway-to-file/grub-file.rpm

OR
$ tar jxvf /pathway/grub.tar.bz2
or
$ tar zxvf /pathway/grub.tar.gz
$ cd /grub-0.9.5
$ ./configure && make install
Note there is a dot after the $ on last line

Handy commands and info now become available are:
$ man grub
$ info grub
Backup stage 1 etc files in /usr/local/share/grub/i386-pc for version
0.95
