So I'm not really a beginner, but this is kind of a beginner issue. I just reinstalled Windows Vista so I could dual boot it, but I cannot recover GRUB because the only live cd I have is Ubuntu 8.10, which refuses to mount my file system because it is ext4. Does anyone know how to recover grub in this situation?

How do I use this? I downloaded the USB version but their help file is off line and I am not familiar with how to put .tar.gz onto a USB drive.

Extract it to the root of the drive. If you can't figure it out, burn a cd.

I would try to make a cd but I am currently running in a live cd and only have one drive. Any other suggestions?

Mount usb stick (places, usb stick)
Extract tar.gz to usb stick
Then try to boot from the usb stick and see what happens...Code:tar xvfz filename.tar.gz /path/to/usbstick/

It quits with errors when trying to install it, then just says no kernel available when trying to boot on it.

download 9.10, burn it, then recover grub.
