I ran into this same issue when I set up my grub (triple boot now with 
Fedora and rhel v6 beta2). The file you want to modify is 
/rpool/boot/grub/menu.lst then add your chainloader entry to the bottom 
of the file.

I see you subsequently re-installed, so this should work for future 
reference. Though a menu.lst file comes up under /boot/grub, you need to 
edit the one in /rpool/boot/grub.
