OK, did a bit more research, based on what you have said, and booted live
Knoppix.
ran the following commands in a terminal, with results as shown (not
captured, from notes)...
sudo grub
grub> find /boot/grub/stage1
error 15 file not found
grub> root (hd0,1)
filesysystem type unknown, partition type 0x5
grub> setup (hd0)
error 17 cannot mount selected partition
A look in /boot shows that grub/stage1 exists.
Not sure where to go from here.
