RE: Reloading GRUB in MBR

Try booting with the Linux cd to rescue mode, login as root and run grub.
Once you have the grub prompt, type "find /boot/grub/stage1" or "find
/grub/stage1" depending on the pathing, without the quotes. The command
should return something to the effect of (hd0,0).  At the prompt, type "root
(hd0,0)" or whatever was returned in the previous command, and hit enter.
Again at the prompt type "setup (hd0)".  That should reinstall the grub boot
loader. Quit out of grub, exit out of rescue mode and reboot.  You should be
good to go. HTH

Quick question:

I ghosted a machine and when I restored the image, the system boots and
hangs with the word GRUB in the upper left hand corner of the screen.
I'm assuming that Grub needs to be reloaded into the MBR of the drive
right?  But I want to keep the original grub.conf file that's out there.
How do I do this?
