Ok... I to test, I've ghosted my drive (just in case) and I've reset the 
MBR through Doze repair console. Then, I booted with Feisty liveCD and 
tried your method and it didn't work.

I then goggled again and this time, I found this link: 
http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_restore_GRUB_menu_after_Windows_installation

and it reinstalled grub correctly and I'm now back on Feisty.  Now that 
I know how to do this, I'll be able to reinstall my crappy Doze partition...

So... as a summary... after reinstalling the OS (or screwing the MBR as 
I did to test):

1- boot with the cd
2- sudo grub
3- root (hd0,4) (as /boot is on /dev/hda5 on my system)
4- setup (hd0)
5- exit
6- reboot
