Looking good? Just want to check before I proceed with this;
Assuming it is right, just to make sure that the MBR is cleanly install upon;
Code:
sudo grub-install /dev/sda
reboot and see if it works.
If not you are going to have to recover the MS boot loader. Do not look to me for help on that. Haven't a clue and do not want one (yes there is a little hostility toward that fine bunch here).
Then you can re install grub on the MBR from your live CD.
You might want to check both your /etc/fstab files to make sure they match your new partition table. I haven't gotten that far yet.
Give the custom entry a whack and see if it helps.
