simple grub install steps
boot from live cd
1. mount the file system in which the kernel present
(the ubuntu file system)
for mounting , it is not necessary to follow commands u can mount
directly from places
2. now check the path of the filesystem where it was mounted
that is most probably /media/xxxxxxxxxxxxx this 'xxxxxxxxxxxx'
will be replaced by uuid which
to check the path open terminal
type 'cd /media'
type 'ls'
u can see the directory with the uuid (it will be looking like a
rondom number)
3. now use the command
grub-install --root-directory=PATH /dev/sda
path is replaced by /media/xxxxxxxxxxxxx (xxxxxxxxxxxx= uuid)
as far as i know this will give u good result :)
