Once you booted from the 6.06CD:

mount your root-partition with write-permissions (probably /dev/sda1 or 
/dev/hda1)
Edit your menu.list in the chroot-environment (e.g. 
/mountpoint_of_root_partition/boot/grub/menu.list)
then execute
	chroot /mountpoint_of_root_partition

You can make it 'stick' by running:
	grub-install /dev/hda
or
	grub-install /dev/sda
depending on type of your hard-disk
IDE -> use /dev/hda
or
SCSI (SATA) -> /dev/sda
and grub will be installed in the MBR of that disk.
