here's my partition information:

root@localhost# fdisk -l /dev/hda

Disk /dev/hda: 240 heads, 63 sectors, 5168 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 15120 * 512 bytes

   Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hda1   *         1      4877  36870088+  83  Linux
/dev/hda2          4878      4932    415800   82  Linux swap
/dev/hda3   *      4933      5168   1784160   39  Plan 9
root@localhost#


and the GRUB configuration that works with it:

-----
#boot=/dev/hda
default=0
timeout=10
splashimage=(hd0,0)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title Red Hat Linux (2.4.20-13.8)
        root (hd0,0)
        kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.20-13.8 ro root=LABEL=/
        initrd /boot/initrd-2.4.20-13.8.img
title Plan 9
        map (hd0,0) (hd0,2)
        map (hd0,2) (hd0,0)
        rootnoverify (hd0,2)
        chainloader +1
