I was having a series of problems with that route. It kept on
getting hung up looking for sda1 even though I deleted all mention of
it in fstab, mtab, devices.map and menu.1st. I was also getting
"/boot/grub/stage1 not read", and some other hangups that I would just
assume forget. But, I suspect that as I get a better conceptual
idea of what is going on, that many of these problems will fade away in
the future, especially with your continued help. <br><br>

Hmm. Just for the record, you could also recover from this sort of thing<br>with knoppix. It's actually pretty simple--boot into knoppix, chroot<br>into your hard drive (chroot /mnt/hda1 or whatever it is), and then you<br>
should be able to run grub-install from there (using your installed<br>grub). You can also use knoppix's grub with the --root-dir option.<br><br>
