That should work . if the grub-install command complains of anything , post it here ..

Re: [ubuntu-in] grub missing
If you still cant recover, use the Ubuntu Live CD to recover the documents by burning them to cds or moving them to a partition. -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
Re: [ubuntu-in] grub missing
Google for "restore grub" to see how you can use your LiveCD/LiveUSB to get booting back into Ubuntu working... post followup questions if you face problems. -- ubuntu-in mailing list ubuntu-in@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in
