You have not told us that wht is your linux distro ? If it is Redhat then boot using Linux Resuce from Installation CD and then follow steps and mount the system under /mnt/sysimage (it is all there as wizard)
Now at command prompt type..
Code: [Select]
/sbin/grub-install /dev/hda
It will recover and reconfigure ur grub automatically
