There is a well documented method for repairing grub - I have used it
successfully on a couple of occasions. You boot from the live-CD and
use the commandline to re-install grub on the partition on which it is
presently installed. If you can't find it online, I might have made
notes somewhere, but it's easy to find on the Ubuntu forums. <br>
