Editing grub.conf

I have Mandrake 10 and Fedora Core 2 installed on two seperate partitions. After Mandrake's installation just now, I get a message when boot either that says "Freeing unused kernel memory: 144K freed." It gets stuck on that and never moves on. Somebody else that had that problem simply added vdso=0 in the boot line in grub.conf and fixed it. I don't have a boot disk and I don't know where to go to edit the grub.conf file. How would I go about doing this?
 
grub.conf resides in /boot/grub/grub.conf you can use your favorite editor (or mine "vi") to edit it.

An infinite number of monkey typing at an infinite number of keyboards will eventually populate the internet.
