Basically it means that your grub has not been setup correctly and if you are a newbie, put your redhat cd in the cd drive and boot into it. At the first boot prompt type rescue and then follow the instructions on screen to reinstall your grub bootloader.
Do you know what partition you installed linux on? If you know that:
grub> root(hd0,x) hit enter
grub> setup(hd0) hit enter
grub> quit hit enter
and reboot.

Looks to me like your boot loader got screwed. I suggest you pop in your Red Hat 7.3 installation cd and reinstall the boot loader using the Upgrade/Update option. On the Red Hat 8.0 cd you need to update at least one app (even if you already have it installed) or else it won't update the boot loader.

Have fun :-)
