identify your drive i.e.
sudo fdisk -l /dev/sdd
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdd1 * 1 17 136521 83 Linux
/dev/sdd2 18 9729 78011640 83 Linux
using the legacy version of grub you can identify the system in charge
grub> find /grub/menu.lst
find /grub/menu.lst
find /grub/menu.lst
(hd3,0)
grub> root (hd3)
grub> setup (hd3,0)
if /boot is on the root partition then use "find /boot/grub/menu.lst"
then probably you'ld fix your boot properties to use UID for boot and give a
root=UUID=... as kernel option for booting
