Ubuntu :: Re-Creating Grub After HD Clone?

I tried to recreate my Grub setup after restoring a backup tar file to a new hard drive. Here is what I did.

I created a tar backup of my working 9.10 server install. I used fdisk to create the same partition structure as the old hard drive:

sda1 Primary bootable ext4 (83)
sda2 Extended
sda5 Linux / swap (82)

I mounted the new drive with the newly created partitions on the current system and extracted the tar backup to the new sda1 partition. I then recreated all the directories which were excluded in the tar backup (mnt, media, home, proc, sys, etc).

I then shut down, unplugged the old OS hard drive, plugged the new hard drive into the same cable as the old OS HD and powered it up. It told me that there was a GRUB error.

I did some looking around and found that I could use an Ubuntu Live CD to fix/install Grub on that hard drive. I burnt a 9.10 desktop CD, booted, installed Grub and here I am.

I am having a difficult time figuring out the GRUB commands.

This is what I was planning on doing:

Code:
1. Pop in the Live CD, boot from it until you reach the desktop.
2. Open a terminal window or switch to a tty.
3. Type "grub"
