GRUB not loading, all partitions (including /boot) still present

I tried to set up Ubuntu on another HDD to boot alongside Windows and Arch, and now all that happens when I power my machine up is "Loading Operating Systems..." being displayed indefinitely. To complicate things, I have 3TB of data locked up with LUKS+LVM.  I booted to a live disc, and the crypted partitions, along with /boot is still there.

Ubuntu sees the crypted partition, but when I give it my password to decrypt and mount it, it gives an error "unknown filesystem type: 'crypto_LUKS'"

Any ideas to get BIOS to see the boot partition again?
