Question #77500 on grub in ubuntu changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub/+question/77500

Tom proposed the following answer:
What i'm hoping not to find in menu.lst is a section something very much
like this at the very end

# This entry automatically added by the Debian installer for a non-linux OS
# on /dev/sda1
title		Microsoft Windows 
root		(hd0,0)
savedefault
makeactive
chainloader	+1

What i'm really hoping for is that in your menu.lst the "root (hd??)" is pointing to a wrong partition and then we can just edit it to point at (hd0,0) and then everything will magically be fixed :)
Good luck and regards from
Tom :)
