Could it be simpler than launching a `grub-install /dev/sda' (or whichever partition you wants to install it to)? You should have copied all the files in /usr/share/grub/i386/ to a directory /boot/grub/ (don't know why the postinst script can't do that as well) and have got a working /boot/grub/menu.lst (the counterpart of lilo.conf) previously, of course.
