grub/boot problems

Hey All,

A re-installation of Windows 7 on my dual boot machine blew away grub. I booted with the Ubuntu rescue disk (12.04) into a terminal where I tried:

sudo grub-install /dev/sda

All I get after that is a grub> prompt. How can I boot into one of the existing bootable partitions from here?

My partitions are:

/dev/sda1 -> HPFS/NTFS
/dev/sda2 -> Linux

All help will be appreciated!

Thanks,

-K
