Try reinstalling grub.

Boot into rescue mode from the cd.
Chroot into /mnt/sysimage
grub-install /dev/sda or /dev/hda depending on the type of hard drive you have connected.

Is this a dual-boot setup? Seems like GRUB doesn't find the /boot partition from that separate Linux hard disk.

Ohhhh! I missed the last part of the post. If you have two hard drives and the one connected does not have boot partition then it is not possible to get grub.
