It depends how you installed Karmic. If Karmic was a clean install, then 
normally it should have installed grub2, if you upgraded from an earlier 
version normally grub legacy will be retained. I'll assume it was a 
clean install. One way to sort it: make a Super Grub Disc 
http://www.supergrubdisk.org/ (make sure you get a SG2D version). With 
this you can boot in to Karmic, then in a terminal run 'grub-install' 
(without quotes). That should reinstate grub2 and your emc2 kernel 
should appear in the grub list at start up.
