unless there's something special about your setup... grub-install
to /dev/sda

and yes, one of the things that Brian did assume correctly was /boot
should be separately partitioned IF you use LVM - but even if you don't
use LVM, it's still much easier to fix things if /boot is on it's own
partition.

Brian ;^)   thanks for clarifying my incorrect terminology though.
