umm, no, I don't recall so. I jotted down the steps I took and mounting
/boot doesn't appear in those. My method worked properly on a laptop
which had Ubuntu and WinXP and my friend has lost Grub after installing
Windows. Got grub after following the step

I tried that and it seemed to work. When I ran
'grub-install /dev/hda5' it reported 'no errors' and
seemed to execute successfully. However, upon reboot,

1. Boot up with live CD (Knoppix)
2. Activate shell and go
