I have a "laptop" computer with winXP Pro, Unbuntu 8.04 and Debian 5 (I think 
it is 5), installed.

I will also add, I am not sure which partition you had grub booting from. 
Ubuntu or Debian...

But the version of grub that was installed is important. Debian Testing or 
"Wheezy" is using Grub2, I forget if Debian Stable or "Squeeze" was updated to 
use Grub2 before release, or what version of Grub will be on the Ubuntu system 
if it was your Boot Partition..

What ever the case, use a Live CD with the corresponding version of Grub 
otherwise it won't work...

Current Knoppix uses Grub2. If your systems were up to date it is good odds 
they were using grub2 as well...

If you mount the boot partition there will be a modules directory for grub, I 
forget the path though, something like /etc/grub/modules.d/ a grub1 install 
will have a /boot/grub/menu.lst file for sure... Grub2 removed that and went to 
the module directory set up.
