Fedora on the second disk

I am not with my machine. What I remember is in total 3 partitions.

Hdb1 is the boot.
Hdb2 is the root.
Hdb3 is the swap.

Should I reinstall Fedora in order to replace lilo with grub?

That might work but you'd probably be better off installing grub on your

second drive as I mentioned last time, as grub is better supported in 
Fedora than LILO.

What's the output of:
# fdisk -l /dev/hdb

What is each of those partitions in the output of this command used for?

P.S. Please do not top-post on this mailing list.
