I also wanted to re-order/change Grub on Ubuntu/Kubuntu ( I dual boot) and found that the easiest way was to use the SysRescueCD (live).

see www.sysresccd.org/Sysresccd-Partitioning-EN-Repairing-a-damaged-Grub

in particular:-

(Solutionn 1)

"In the first case (eg: rescuecd root=/dev/sda2) the SystemRescueCd initialization script will mount the specified partition. If you type rescuecd root=auto then SystemRescueCd will use the first valid root partition where a Linux installation has been detected."

then

"r...@debian /root % grub-install /dev/sda"

(change /sda as appropriate)

Note that the menu order doesnt change, just the highlighted entry ( at least in my case)

Hope that this helps

Bill
