booting error

I have RED HAT 9.0 , I am getting problem while booting.
i have lilo, i used the following command:
mv /etc/lilo.conf /dev/null
then install grub.
after rebooting the maching grub was there.. it starts booting my
machine... but after some time it gives these errors:

grep: no such file or directory
