The bit in that on grub should work?

im not sure because i never had to do it with grub2

It's better to reinstall grub2 to the mbr of the disk. Or you can adjust the grub from Lenny.

How do I reinstall grub2?

If you don't know which one is your ubuntu root partition run:
sudo fdisk -l (small L)

That will show you the partitions and hopefully you can figure it out without additional tries.
Once you know the partition, boot with ubuntu cd, select Try Ubuntu option, open terminal and run:

sudo mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/ /dev/sda

Here /dev/sda3 is example for your root partition. Change as necessary. And I assume you have only single drive, this will install grub2 on the MBR, in other words /dev/sda.

Thanks one more.
