try
#grub --no-floppy

 the --no-floppy should stop the hang. I have had problems with
grub-install myself.

from the grub prompt type

root (hd0,2)

setup (hd0)

that should install it for ya, be Sure to check grub.conf to make sure
its set to boot windows.

> kill -9 brings it back to life, but I really want to do the grub-install
