I am kind of stumped and would prefer not to reinstall debian to get this box running. Any thoughts on what I should try? Let me know if you need any more information.

If you want to to fsck on the drive, do it with a live cd. Some live cd's mount the drive automagically for you. Be sure it's not mounted with a "df -h" before running fsck.
Describe the steps to reinstalling grub.
