I have bad experiences with grub-install.
Booting from rescue mode, mounting / as (per example) /mnt/sys

# chroot /mnt/sys
# grub

and on grub shell:

grub> find /boot/grub/stage1
(hd0,1)
grub>root (hd0,1)
Filesystem type is reiserfs, partition type 0x83
grub>kernel /boot/vmlinuz
[Linux-bzImage, setup=0x1400, size=0x1078c4]
grub>setup(hd0)
.....
Done.

Also, after chrooting /mnt/sys, you can probe with grub-install.

Good luck!
