Well you boot either with the rescue disk or if you use Disk 1 the
type: linux rescue at the boot.
Eventually if you follow the prompts (you don't need networking) you
will given a choice of partitions which have been identified as linux
root partitions to mount. Choose the one you want to mount. It will be
mounted on mount point /mnt/sysimage. Let us say your disk is /dev/hda
 The you could type:
grub-install  --root-directory=/mnt/sysimage  /dev/hda

and then reboot.

Is that clear enough.
