Well, if you'd _like_ to try just fixing GRUB before blowing the machine
state away and trying again, documentation suggests these steps:

Boot your choice of live CD.

# mount /dev/sda1/ mnt  #substituting whatever /dev node is the root fs
# chroot /mnt
# grub
grub> find /boot/grub/stage1 #should output something like (hd0,3)
grub> root (hd0,3)
grub> setup (hd0)
grub> quit

Reboot, removing the live CD to attempt boot from the root fs.
