  There's no easy way to recover Grub from livecd.

Bug description:
  Many people install Ubuntu, and then another proprietary system afterwards, which wipes the boot manager (in ubuntu's case, grub).
  There's no easy way for the average user to recover grub without booting the livecd and running grub on a chrooted environment.
  A "Super Grub Disk" already exists, which make this really easy for user. At just 3.4megabytes, I guess it (or some modified version of it) could be added to the default live cd. Its URL is http://geocities.com/supergrubdisk/
