Hope you mean you're stuck.  :)

I take it that you can now get into grub prompt or grub menu instead of 
grub rescue prompt. If not, please state so.

At grub menu, go into grub prompt (press 'c'), and let us know the 
result of the following queries..


grub> ls
grub> search -f /boot/grub/grub.cfg
grub> search -f /grub/grub.cfg
grub> search -f /vmlinuz
grub> search -f /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35-22-generic
grub> search -f /vmlinuz-2.6.35-22-generic
