Earl, for Fedora the file to edit is /boot/grub/grub.conf. You do have
to log in as root in a terminal to run an editor. It would be easiest
to mount the Ubuntu partition and then copy the latest entry lines
from /boot/grub/menu.lst and paste them at the bottom of the grub.conf
file. There's also the grub command "configfile" that is handy to boot
multiple distros from one master grub menu.
