Grub issues

Hello,

I kinda hosed my boot loader, was wondering if anyone could point me in the
direction of putting the pieces back together.

The computer is my desktop pc. I have two drives: the first has four
partitions and the second has only one.

sda1 is 10GB, ext3, unused
sda2 is 130GB, NTFS, storage of files (shared with windows)
sda3 is 10GB, ext3, this is where the Ubuntu system lives
sda4 is 1GB, swap

sdb is 20GB, this disk has windows on it

I re-installed grub a couple times as I was not able to boot my Ubuntu
system directly, was having to use a "super-grub-disc" (this is after
re-mapping the drives in grub so I could boot windows). Whatever I did last
I acutally wiped out the grub installation, there is no "menu.1st" or kernel
on sda3.

So, I have this "super-grub-disc" rescue disc, but not having a kernel I'm
not sure what I can do. I also have a ubuntu installation disc.

Thanks!
