My windows did get a virus. Did try to remove it, a system restore, but none worked. Last resort… REINSTALL

After re-installation I needed my GRUB(the that lets you choose your operating system when booting) back.

1. Boot Ubuntu Live CD
2. open a terminal, if your in GUI mode
3. run #sudo grub
4. find your grub in preparation for the root command execute find /boot/grub/stage1
5. execute root (<device,partition>), if step 4 returns (hd0, 5) you do root (hd0, 5)
6. execute setup (<device>), following step 5 it would be setup (hd0)
7. execute quit, then reboot.

I did find some help through google. But Venz Hua has better document and I’m placing it here.
