__Remember that grub numbering starts at 0:__ __/dev/hda1__ becomes __(hd0,0)__, etc.
Run 'grub'. Issue =root (hdx,x)= if you know where your __/boot__ directory is, or use =find /boot/grub/stage1= to find it if you don't. Then issue =setup (hdx)= to install GRUB in the master boot record of drive hdx, or =setup (hdx,x)= to setup inside a partition.

+Alternatively on many modern distros you can use [grub-install(8)] to do this e.g.
+ grub-install /dev/hda
!! I get a grub> prompt on boot
This means [GRUB] can't find your config file. You can still boot into the system by issuing appropriate commands.
