I'm not really sure that partitions on modern pc has to be made bootable for
grub to work

just run grub

inside the grub console setup your root partition

for instance first partition on first drive is set with

root(hd0,0)

and after this just setup grub on this partition

setup(hd0)


it can't be made more simple I think
