You're right, it wasn't necessary to chroot. I simply mounted the drives and issued the command "grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/target /dev/hda" and it worked. For good measure, before I rebooted, I chrooted and ran update-grub, but I'm not certain that was necessary. Now, all my kernels are back and working.
