This is a well known problem. Use the rescue disk so you can chroot to your root
partition. Then install grub by the following steps:
grub
grub> root (hd0,0)
grub> setup (hd0)
grub> quit
Change arguments from (hd0,0) is you root partition in not /dev/hda1. I assume the
error you are talking about is that grub says it can't find stage2.
