Trying to reinstall GRUB into root partition

[Lewis Futrell]

Here is my setup:

 

            2 hard drives, 1 40 Gig IDE master (for my Linux experimenting)
and 1 160 Gig SATA (my Windows drive).

 

In my BIOS boot sequence, I have the SATA drive the first bootable HD.  When
I installed Dapper from the live CD, GRUB went ahead and 'installed' itself
to the MBR.  I say 'installed' because instead of changing the MBR of the
SATA drive, it installed itself to the IDE drive.  I would actually have
liked for GRUB to ask me where to install it instead of it assuming I wanted
the MBR overwritten.  The good news is that I can access Kubuntu by
accessing the BIOS boot menu and selecting the IDE drive as the bootable
drive.  It even added XP to the menu and XP boots.  I simply want GRUB to
install itself to the root partition so I can use the GAG boot loader on my
SATA drive to access all my various OS installs.  Any ideas?
