Hi friends, I had WinXP and Ubuntu 10.04 installed on my system. I replaced WinXP with Win7 and lost GRUB (Legacy). Now my system started booting directly into Win7. So I tried installing GRUB (Legacy) again with Ubuntu live cd. But this time I end up removing NT loader as well and now I just get grub> prompt when I boot my system. I am able to boot Ubuntu manually from grub> prompt. So I did and created new menu.lst with all the commands and options I used to do manual boot
Ubuntu 10.04 has Grub 2 by default. So, instead of menu.lst, there's grub.cfg. You don't need to manually modify this file. Once you boot into Ubuntu, run 'sudo update-grub'. It should automatically detect your Windows 7 installation and add the corresponding entry in grub.cfg.
