Well, it worked (I got a kernel in place) but I continued having
problems with the bootloader.
It seems that my issue was the stage 1.5 grub image, I got a warning to
that effect. I Tried to manually boot from the GRUB command line, once I
had GRUB back in the MBR, but I kept getting kernel
I have reinstalled GRUB as indicated... But, I don't have a kernel.
So I can get a GRUB command line at boot-up, but theres nothing to boot!
Is there a way to install a kernel?

I'm pretty sure you can boot the Live CD, mount your hard disk
filesystems and then chroot to them, then run apt-get install
whatever to install any
That sounds like it, I'm going to give it a try.
I'm going to have to use a local copy of the kernel package though, I can't
access the internet with the Live CD.
I'll let you know!

Hello,
I kinda hosed my boot loader, was wondering if anyone could point me in the
direction of putting the pieces back together.
The computer is my desktop pc. I have two drives: the first has four
partitions and the second has only one.
sda1 is 10GB, ext3, unused
sda2 is 130GB, NTFS, storage
I have fixed this on several occasions, mostly by my own tinkering.
In the past, what I did was to reinstall without formattting.
One question, is /boot part of your regular root file system (eg.
/dev/sda3) or was it originally /dev/sda1. Remember the /boot grub
stage2 must reside within the
if ubuntu is booting then just add the windows entry for sdb to menu.lst
(grub starts numbering at 0)
title Windows
rootnoverify (hd1,0)
chainloader +1
and rem out hiddenmenu if it is there so you can actually see the entry.

The partition sda1 had been windows at one point, but I reinstalled windows
on a sdb (not today). The partition sda3 has always been the ubuntu
partition (a monolithic system as far as mount points). I guess the issue
is that today I reformatted sda1 to use as /var/backup and so I wiped out
