Ctrl-Alt-F7 is only applicable after you've booted Linux. You've not even
begun to boot Linux if you're looking at a grub> prompt. From a grub> prompt
it is possible to boot by typing in commands similarly to the way commands
work from a bash prompt. The commands you need will vary according to your
system's configuration, and can be found in Grub's man page or a howto
somewhere. You may find it easier to boot installation media to a rescue
system to reinstall the bootloader using scripts, but it doesn't hurt to
learn the basic Grub commands, in case the problem arises again in the future.
