Boot up a linux live cd, get root, and list the partitions
$ su -
# fdisk -l

The fdisk command lets you know where the linux partition is so you can repair the grub on that partition.
Mount the linux partition. Since, with knoppix, the mount points are created for you, I was able to make my mount point at ‘/mnt/hda3′ instead of ‘/mnt’:
# mount -t ext3 -o rw /dev/hda3 /mnt/hda3
#_

Make your linux partition the root partition:
chroot /mnt/hda3
& fix the grub mbr:
# grub-install /dev/hda
