Set Ikea Wire
Track Lighting Wiring Question: Fixture has black/white - ceiling has black/white/red/ground?

I recently bought a track lighting unit and have tried to replace the flourescent light box in my kitchen. The ceiling electrical box has wires for red, black, white, and a ground copper wire, but my new fixture only has the black and white. After reading countless posts on similar configurations, I wired white to white and black to red (assuming it was hot because it was used with last fixture). I left black alone and copper alone. Should I've done something differently (with ground specifically) because after reswitching at the breaker, nothing is powering with the unit? I should mention that unit (from Ikea) has cord that reaches out and sends current through metal track. If anyone is familiar with this set up, input would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!
Shane

You should attach white to white,black to red and black,and ground to the ceiling electrical box screw.
