Try installing qgrubeditor from Synaptic package manager. It will then appear under Applications>System Tools. Hope this helps.

I myself solved my question. i just restored my grub menu that solved my problem.
procedure
entering command line by typing c at boot up,then
grub> find /boot/grub/stage1
grub> setup(hd0)
this restored the grub menu. i got ubuntu on the grub back.
hope this helps someone like me
