You answered the question during the installation. If it's a recent
version of Red Hat Linux or Red Hat Enterprise Linux, it will likely be
grub.
The definitive answer (assuming you boot from /dev/hda):
[root@pe400 ~]# dd if=/dev/hda bs=384 count=1 |strings
1+0 records in
1+0 records out
8,| u
ZRrI
D|f1
GRUB
This tells you that you're booting using GRUB.
