To repair the MBR:
boot a rescue CD

On some systems, it has been necessary to use old arguments:
# grub-install --no-floppy --recheck /dev/sda
# exit
That should do it.
Good luck!
Hmm... There may be a bigger problem.
Trying to mount the existing installation as /mnt/sysimage (entering
rescue mode, before the command prompt), I get:
"An error occurred trying to mount some or all of your system. Some of
it may be mounted under /mnt/sysimage."
At the command prompt, I note that *nothing* is under /mnt/sysimage.
From there, running "chroot /mnt/sysimage" gets me:
"chroot: cannot run command `/bin/sh': No such file or directory"
/bin/sh is a link to /usr/bin/sh, which does seem to be there.
Am I totally hosed, or is there hope? In case it makes a difference,
this is an F8 rescue disk, but the laptop HD is F9.
