If grub is still installed then just boot from the liveCD, mount your
root partition chroot into it and run "grub-install". It should be this
procedure:
sudo -i
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
chroot /mnt
update-grub
exit

Then you can check the file in /mnt/boot/grub/menu.lst and see if it
looks right. After that you should be able to boot normally.
