Did you find and repair the chain?

Can you post the output of this please?

sudo dd if=/dev/hda bs=16 count=5 skip=27 | hexdump

or if you don't have hexdump but you do have vim installed, you can pipe 
into 'xxd' instead.

Also, as I noted in a previous post, sfdisk is more useful than fdisk. It 
appears -u with fdisk is still unhelpful - sfdisk -uS is much easier to 
work with.
