If you need to make grub regenerate it's config files and install
'itself' in '/' then you'll need to look up in the manual commands like
grub-install. That should get it working again. But that probelm you've
just hit (overighting MBR with another app) is exactly why I never do it
that way anymore. I hope using GAG makes your life a bit easier
