Grub and Grub2 don't get along?

I managed to install Kubuntu 9.10 on dev/sda7, an empty but previously 
formatted partition on my laptop.  I was a little leary, but I think I let it 
default to installing grub2 on dev/sda.  When I rebooted, the grub menu from 
Kubuntu 9.04 on dev/sda5 was displayed with no way to boot 9.10.

I thought, well, that was probably a good thing.  I'd just add Kubuntu 9.10 on 
dev/sda7 to that menu like I had Mandriva 2009 on dev/sda6.  I did it and 
rebooted but when I clicked on Kubuntu 9.10 it took me to a grub prompt.

How do I get 9.10 to boot?
