One solution is, always taken care of in a new Installation, is that a separate /boot partition of around 100 MB is created, thus this partition shall be independent of any os changes and OS crashes, ur boot loader shall be intact and permanent irrespective of changes or complete deletion of the OS files., now u can make a new partition or resize the partition and mount it as boot. copy the /boot directory into this partitin. but what bhagat has given the solution seems to be the right one for u.
